Liverpool great Steven Gerrard praised Loris Karius for going to the fans after the Champions League final defeat.
The Reds keeper made errors for two goals in the 3-1 loss to Real Madrid - but gritted his teeth through tears and went over to the Liverpool end to apologise to fans straight after the game.
Analysing the match for BT Sport, Gerrard said: "No-one makes a mistake on purpose.
"Fair play to him for going to the fans.
"I admire him for owning up and apologising. These Liverpool fans will back you when times are tough, and they'll also back you when you're on top of the world as well.
"But there's no getting away from it. [Karius] is in for a tough few months.
"He's in for a tough summer."
