Many feel that Loris Karius is an able goal keeper for Liverpool who would put the interests of the club ahead of the county as well.

This comment is justified as Louis Karius who is a goalkeeper for Liverpool from Germany U21 team, decided not to go for Olympics after he had a discussion with Jurgen Klopp. He decided that he would be the first choice for the team in the new season and opted out of his chance to play in the Olympics. Karius was guaranteed a starting place in the Olympics in Germany, but he decided that he would not go to Rio after having a discussion with his club manager.

The player who is 23 years of age, played the friendly match that Liverpool played last night and revealed that Klopp wanted him to be there for his club when they play the first matches of the Premier League.

He stated that he and the manager agreed that he would not miss out on the beginning games of the Premier League for the new season. He stated that he then agreed that he would not be going to Rio that would be starting next month. He also spoke with his manager with the German authorities who felt that Karius should be part of the Rio Germany team. He stated that his priority this time was the club and to be there for the club at the beginning of the season. Karius has come onto the team in May from Mainz. Simon Mignolet is the other goalkeeper for the club and he might be looking at competition from this younger player. He feels that the club would be offering more competitive games for him to hone his skills with this coming season.

Villarreal scored a goal in injury time to beat Liverpool 1-0 in the first leg of the Europa League semi-final.

The match was rather poor when it comes to chances created with both sides putting emphasis on defending. The only goal of the game came in the 92nd minute when Adrian Lopez scored from close range. He benefited from a good work from Denis Suarez.

In fact, it was Liverpool who started the match better and created the first chance of the game. Joe Allen’s shot was directed at the keeper following an Adam Lallana’s cross.

With Sturridge on the bench and with Liverpool deciding not to play a recognized striker, there were not many chances created from the English side and it will be Villareal who would take control of the game.

Former Spurs player, Roberto Soldado, will have a good chance to open the scoring for Villareal, but his shot will go wide. Then it would be Pina that will force Mignolet into a save.

Again Soldado will get another chance at goal, but his curling shot will only find the side netting.

The match reached half-time with the score 0-0, but Liverpool will lose Coutinho because of an injury.

After the restart, Villareal will have a great chance to open the score, but Cedric Bakambu will hit the post with a magnificent header.

On the 65th minute, it will be Liverpool turn to hit the post when Firmino’s shot will be deflected on the post by Asenjo.

In the last ten minutes of the match, the game became much more opened with both teams getting chances to score. Mignolet will again save a shot from Bakumbu to prevent Villareal from taking the lead.

Ultimately it will be Villarreal who will score with a great counter-attack by Suarez. The latter will find Lopez, who could not miss from close range.
