Sergio Ramos Calls Jurgen Klopp's Comments on Mo Salah Injury 'An Excuse'

Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos has commented Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is using Mohamed Salah's injury in the UEFA Champions League final as "an excuse" after the Egypt international was hurt in the showcase.

Klopp has said the attacker's forced substitution changed the game in favour of Los Blancos, prompting a retort from Madrid's centre-back.

ESPN's Dermot Corrigan quoted Ramos on Twitter:

Ramos on Klopp not letting the Salah injury stuff lie “It’s not the first final he's lost, [maybe] he wants to use that as an excuse for losing. Some of us have been operating at a very high level for many years, not sure he can say the same.
