Doyle putting Fekir blunder behind him
Republic Colin Doyle

COLIN DOYLE vowed to put his nightmare moment behind him after getting an unwelcome taste of Champions League final villain Loris Karius's misery last night.

The Republic of Ireland goalkeeper allowed Nabil Fekir's shot to squirm from his grasp and into the net as his side lost 2-0 to France in Paris on Monday evening, two days after Karius found himself in the firing line on social media following his horror show in Kiev.

Even the more measured reaction to the Liverpool man's misfortune has seen his continued presence at Anfield called into question, but Doyle, who was making just his third senior appearance for Ireland, will take his mishap on the chin and look to move on.
