Is Loris Karius the unluckiest goalkeeper ever?

I just watched the highlights, Arsenal - Newcastle 4 -1 (February 24, 24) and basically his own defenders were constantly trying to score against him! Watch the first goal, he makes a save and then two of his defenders combine to score an own goal!

I felt so sad about the poor guy... This was his first appearance in Premier League since 2018 and it was a disaster. But it wasn't his fault.

I had to watch the first goal 4 or 5 times, in slow motion, to understand what happened.

For the second goal, Havertz scores. I mean, Havertz vs Karius, can you imagine? And Karius loses. Again. (Okay, Havertz missed a sitter later on, but still... )

Then for the third goal, a Newcastle defender gives the ball to Arsenal, Saka shoots and the ball is deflected twice by two different defenders and goes in!

In the fourth goal, Arsenal corner, and one of the defenders scores against Karius using his hand! Are you serious?

Do not pity him
