    Charming little bastard Ramos had even more to do with the victory apparently:

    Totally off the ball, they should forfeit the cup. Disgusting. The pre-match tactics board for Ramos appears to have been a hit list.

    It appears Ramos took that advice literally.

    Interesting to note they are now saying Karuis was concussed (by Ramos...) .

    Certainly would explain the lack of focus and concentration for the first goal but guess he didn't want to come off or it wasn't noted by the medical staff at the time.

  5. He made a couple of world class saves after the first cock up.

    Ramos is right to defend himself. The witch hunt is farcical. Won't be long before it turns out his dad shot John Lennon.

    I agree with the above. I'd also like to add that if the keeper was even close to being concussed, he should have been taken off.

    I’ve posted the video above, Mark. Watch Karius’s movements after the impact. Would suggest he was concussed.

    He should’ve been taken off, yes. But that would further play into their hands.

    There wasn’t a knoll there, but it was definitely grassy.
