Karius and the lack of training system in Germany

Loris Karius made two fatal mistakes in the Champions League final on May 27, causing Liverpool to lose Real Madrid. On a larger scale, this is not just an individual mistake but a whole system of training players in Germany.

Karius is not alone
The past days, Karius is the focus of the world press. He was at the center of criticism, of mockery but also of a wave of support and sympathy to help the German goalkeeper overcome difficulties. It may not be necessary to recall two Karius blunders in the Champions League final of 2017/18 against Real, which is to say that even before the kick-off, Karius was seen as a fatal punishment. Liverpool and where Real can exploit. These are not just technical problems, but psychological factors as well. Prior to the excellent game to score, Karius also experienced a difficult period in the Liverpool shirt and had made many foolish mistakes.

But Karius is just one of many German goalkeepers who have made difficult mistakes in the European arena, both at the club level and in the national team. Shortly thereafter, another German goalkeeper, Sven Ulreich, made an amateur mistake, slipping his foot through the back of Tolisso, which made Bayern suffer a goal and suffered a Real in the semi-finals.

Ter Stegen missed the match against Slovakia

Images of the wrong goalkeeper Germany have appeared more regularly than before. Kevin Trapp with weak psychology could not hold the No. 1 position at PSG. Even in Germany, although Coach Joachim Loew in favor of convening and granting the opportunity but Trapp often disappointed.

Likewise, Bernd Leno, Leverkusen's goalkeeper, is known for his fantastic performances and difficult jokes in the wood.

Even Ter Stegen has suffered a lot from the mistakes that can be found and confirmed the talent in the Barcelona shirt. Even then, after an impressive season with the Spanish side, Ter Stegen has yet to create the absolute confidence that Manuel Neuer had in Germany.

It's time to change
The Karius, Ulreich, Trapp, Leno or Ter Stegen are highly regarded for their expertise. But the problem here is that they do not have a solid psychology in big battles. In the position of goalkeeper, when there is no good psychology mistakes can come at any time.

The position of the goalkeeper is also clearly visible where the psychological weakness. But German football in recent years has also produced many unstable players like before Mannschaft was considered a set of players with nerves of steel.

Karius was not the only German goalkeeper or made a mistake

Even a player who was worn by the Bayern captain or German Tel: Bastian Schweinsteiger has also shown the weak ... not dare to look teammates Arjen Robben penalty kick in the Champions League final 2011/12 with Chelsea (1 -1, 4-5 lost on dots 11 meters).

This is considered a shortcoming of the German training system in recent years. That is when they are too focused on the exercise of professionalism that negates the psychological factor, fighting ... for the players. That created a generation of German players who were weak in the offensive. With such players, disaster can strike at any time!

Scholes criticizes Karius
United's Paul Scholes does not mention Loris Karius's two mistakes. Scholes criticized Karius for crying out after the match ended. "That's not to solve the problem at all. He did not control his psychology well and that was probably the reason for the mistakes, "Scholes admits.
