Try your best! Courtois: Unfortunately my saves were not enough, some of the fouls were unnecessary

November 5th: In this round of the Champions League, Real Madrid lost 0-1 to Liverpool. In this battle, Courtois repeatedly made brilliant saves but failed to save the defeat. Courtois was interviewed after the game.

About the loss

"My saves were not enough, which is a pity. I tried to support the team, but I think we committed too many fouls near the penalty area in the second half, and they were very good at taking advantage of that. That's how we got scored. It's a pity, it's a pity. We defended well and had the ball. It's OK, but we conceded the ball too quickly in the final third. But it's a very difficult away game, one of the toughest places to play in the Champions League, and obviously it's not the result we want, but now until Christmas, the next game is away to Olimpia. Kos, it's difficult and then it's against Manchester City at home. "

About the opponent's set-piece ability

"Yes, some fouls are unnecessary, sometimes you have to get a tactical foul because it was a very dangerous offense like that one when the goal was scored. Yes, although I don't think it was a foul, I think he fell to the ground more because he saw Bellingham's leg stretched out than because it was really a foul. But they played a good ball and scored a good goal. It was difficult to maintain possession of the ball in the opponent's half. This is why we are facing a strong team. There are areas where we need to improve, especially on the road. We performed well at home, but we can do better on the road. "

Do you feel like you missed a good opportunity

"Yes, but as I said, this is a very difficult away game and losing is possible. Dare to face it and play better, but a game like this is determined by the details and it is what it is. We have to stay calm and we are okay but obviously after losing this game we have to win at home to Olympiacos and we can continue the good momentum to go forward. Eight. "

About that crucial save against Szoboszlai

"Having to occupy space, what I saw was that, I don't know if it was Salah, no, I think it was Wirtz, setting up a two-on-one situation, and Szoboszlai was unmarked in that situation. It was almost a goal, a shot that was almost impossible to save. So I took a risk. Because I'm two meters tall and I have long arms, I went for it. Well, it wasn't a very classic goalkeeping move, but it worked.
