Firmino Tags Ramos Comments As 'Idiotic'


The aftermath of the bitter loss by English side, Liverpool to Spanish giant, Real Madrid is still much in the air as Liverpool and Brazilian striker, Roberto Firmino has labelled comments made by Real Madrid and Spain national team captain, Sergio Ramos as 'idiotic.'

Firmino has reacted to Ramos's response to criticism of his actions in the Champions League final.

The Real Madrid captain proved a controversial figure as Los Blancos ran out 3-1 winners over the Reds in Kiev.

Ramos's challenge on Mohamed Salah saw the Egypt attacker fall and injure his shoulder, while a collision with Loris Karius was reported to have led to the goalkeeper suffering concussion.

The Spain international appeared exasperated at being labelled the villain and, after suggesting that the incidents were blown out of proportion, added: "The only thing that is missing if for Firmino to say he has a cold because some of my sweat dripped in him."

Firmino struck back on Wednesday, calling the comments "idiotic", and noting that the only thing that Ramos had got correct was the fact that he was a champion.

"I think it's an idiotic thing for him to say," the Brazil international told Marca. "I prefer not to comment, he's right that he's a champion."

Madrid's victory over Liverpool saw the Spanish club win their third successive Champions League cup.

Some sports historians, analysts, and supporters pick their own choices not necessarily on facts but emotions.  In picking the 7 greatest sportsmen of all time, I briefly checked their achievements not just in their specific fields but also their impact outside the world of sports. 1.
