World Cup 2018: Uruguay keeper Fernando Muslera compared to Loris Karius as he is trolled for howler against France
Stopper flapped at an Antoine Griezmann shot and watched as the ball deflected into his own net
URUGUAY keeper Fernando Muslera has been trolled for "going full Karius" after his howler against France.
The stopper flapped at an Antoine Griezmann shot and watched as the ball deflected into his own net.
Galatasaray star Muslera, 32, slightly adjusted his feet to get behind the ball but was unable to save the effort.
Viewers were instantly reminded of Liverpool goalie Loris Karius' Champions League final horror show against Real Madrid.
The German made an almost identical gaffe as he parried Gareth Bale's long-distance shot behind him and over the line in the 3-1 defeat in Kiev.
He received death threats and vile abuse online which cops confirmed they would investigate.
Muslera did not concede in the group stage against Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Russia.
He let in his first goal in the 2-1 last-16 win against Portugal.
But France were too clinical for Uruguay, with Raphael Varane heading Les Bleus ahead in the first half and Griezmann getting the second.
In the other goal, Lloris Karius nearly swallowed a DRAGONFLY.

Muslera has been linked with a £20million move to Watford.
