Loris Karius’ WAG gives big kiss and says ‘proud of you’ after Man Utd defeat
Newcastle United goalkeeper Loris Karius was given a big kiss by "proud" WAG Diletta Leotta after their defeat to Manchester United in the Carabao Cup final.
Karius produced a steady performance for Eddie Howe's side at Wembley in the absence of suspended Nick Pope and cup-tied Martin Dubravka, but ultimately came out on the losing side thanks to Casemiro's header and Marcus Rashford's deflected strike.
His Italian TV host girlfriend Diletta had flown in from her home country to watch him play and the following day posted a selfie of her kissing him on the cheek to her Instagram story with the caption: "Proud of you."

The pair began dating last year and are in a long-distance relationship. Diletta presents DAZN's coverage of the Serie A while former Liverpool star Karius returned to England last summer to join Newcastle on a short-term deal.
He hadn't played for the best part of two years heading into the cup final and like his other half, was proud of the performance he put in against the Red Devils.
What did you think of Karius' performance? Let us know in the comments section.
Speaking post-match, he said: "I showed I don’t need to hide or anything, that I can still perform on this standard.
“There’s always pressure to perform. I tried to enjoy it. It’s a cup final, it’s Wembley. It doesn’t really get better than this so you have to enjoy these moments and soak it all in and that’s what I tried to do.
“I’m disappointed we didn’t bring the cup back to Newcastle but I think I played pretty well considering the time I was out.
"It’s not easy as a goalkeeper to get straight in the rhythm in a game like this so I think I did quite well.”
It seems Diletta has now returned to her native Italy as her uploaded selfie was from an airport departure lounge. Karius, meanwhile, is committed to the Magpies until the end of the season.
