It just wasn't to be. Liverpool suffered the most heartbreaking defeat to Real Madrid tonight as two horrendous mistakes from Loris Karius played a huge part in Los Blancos' eventual win.
In one of the most bizarre moments in Champions League final history, Karius gifted Karim Benzema with an easy tap in after throwing it directly at his body.
Then the 24-year-old fumbled Gareth Bale's long range effort to end Liverpool's faint chances.
It just wasn't the goalkeeper's night and after the final whistle, he sobbed to the travelling support and asked for forgiveness.
