WATCH: Liverpool keeper Loris Karius suffers another Besiktas howler

Liverpool goalkeeper Loris Karius has suffered another howler on-loan with Besiktas.

The German was playing for the Turkish club away to Slovan Bratislava in the opening Europa League game of Group K.

He produced a big error of judgement which enabled the Slovan Bratislava to take a 14th minute lead.

With Bratislava keeper Dominik Grief launching a long goal kick down the field, Karius came charging out of his penalty area to try and head clear as the ball bounced between onrushing Bratislava forward Andraz Sporar and one of his own Besiktas defenders.

Unfortunately for Karius, he mistimed his jump for the header and only managed to glance it behind him, leaving Sporar with the simple task of slotting into an empty net.

Bratislava would go onto win 4-2.
