French keeper brutally trolled over shocking blunder in final
France’s World Cup victory wasn’t enough to save Huge Lloris from some brutal treatment from fans after a truly unbelievable howler.
The 31-year-old conceded a shocking goal late in Sunday’s final to hand Croatia a sniff of a miracle comeback.

PITCH INVASION: Bizarre invasion caused World Cup final chaos
With France up 4-1, a sluggish Lloris attempted to play out from the back on his own goal line but in the process allowed Mario Mandzukic to make the closing interception, steering the ball straight into the net.
Although Didier Deschamps’ men went on to secure the 4-2 victory, Lloris’ performance did not go down well with fans, with many comparing him to the much-maligned Loris Karius.

You can take the kepper out of Premier league but you cant take Premier league out of the keeper.
Karius did it
De Gea did it… so, why not Lloris— Elias (@chigoziiem) July 15, 2018
