This week, the doctors who assessed the German following the match revealed the keeper had a concussion which could have affected his performance.

It’s believed the concussion came following a clash with Ramos moments before Karius threw the ball against Benzema to concede the opening goal.

Liverpool star Mohamed Salah was taken off injured during the game after a clash with the Spanish defender with many Reds fans blaming Ramos for defeat.

Ramos recently issued his version of events, saying: "Bloody hell, they've given this a lot of attention, the Salah thing ... I didn't want to speak because everything is magnified.

“I see the play as it is. He grabbed my arm first and I fell to the other side, the injury happened to the other arm and they said that I gave him a judo hold.

“After the goalkeeper said that I dazed him with a clash with me. I am only missing Firmino saying that he got a cold because a drop of my sweat!”

But now Liverpool ace Firmino has hit back at Ramos, and he hasn’t been afraid of revealing his true feelings.

“I prefer not to make any comments,” Firmino said.

“I think he has a view because he was the champion but I thought he was an idiot for what he said, but that’s OK.”

Ramos could meet Salah again at the World Cup in a potential last-16 tie in Russia.

Karius is not involved with the Germany squad while Firmino is preparing with Brazil.
