Courtois responds to Karius concussion claims, he's suffered a concussion before

It has been a long time since the Champions League final was played but the events around the match are yet to die down. Recent claims have been made that Liverpool goalkeeper Loris Karius suffered a concussion during the game and that could have led to some of his mistakes which inadvertently handed Real Madrid the victory.

Chelsea Goalkeeper, Thibaut Courtois, while in camp with the rest of the Belgium Squad for the World Cup was asked in an interview about his views on the claims. He responded:
"It happened to me with Alexis Sanchez - I had a concussion and I couldn't see the ball so after 20 minutes i went out of the game because I couldn't see the ball. I feel sorry for what happened to him, but to blame it on concussion that he made those mistakes, he also made two amazing saves. So was that luck then? I don't know because he couldn't see the ball".

"It's unfortunate for him to have made those mistakes but if you have concussion you will leave the game or the doctors will tell you look you cannot see clearly anymore you must leave the game". "If they want to say it's because of that, it's okay. It can happen as a goalkeeper but to blame it on a concussion now, I find it strange. But I medics say that from Boston, it's OK"


These comments haven't gone down well with a lot of Liverpool fans who are still hurt by the loss of that day.
