Doctors Reveal What Happened To Liverpool Goalkeeper During Champions League Final

Liverpool goalkeeper, Loris Karius suffered concussion during the Champions League final against Real Madrid, doctors in the United States have said.

Karius underwent scans at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston and medical staff believe the concussion sustained during the game affected his performance.

“After carefully reviewing game film and integrating a detailed history – including his reported present and immediate post-contact subjective symptoms – physical examination and objective metrics, we have concluded that Mr. Karius sustained a concussion during the match May 26, 2018.

“At the time of our evaluation, Mr. Karius’s principal residual symptoms and objective signs suggested that visual spatial dysfunction existed and likely occurred immediately following the event.

“Additional symptomatic and objectively noted areas of dysfunction also persisted. It could be possible that such deficits would affect performance.

“We also note that Mr. Karius has reported significant and steady improvement since the concussive event, and we expect him to make a full recovery based on the results of the examination,” a statement on the hospital’s website read.

Karius collided with Sergio Ramos during a corner early in the second half and moments later he was at fault for Karim Benzema’s goal.

The 24-year-old also erred for Madrid’s third goal, failing to deal with Gareth Bale’s long-range shot as the Spaniards ran out 3-1 winners.
