Thibaut Courtois, the goalkeeper for Real Madrid, has identified three areas for improvement for Los Blancos after their FIFA Club World Cup match against Al Hilal, which ended in a 1-1 draw on Wednesday. Recall that Gonzalo Garcia and Ruben Neves each scored two goals, resulting in a tie between Real Madrid and Al Hilal at the Hard Rock Stadium in the USA. The goal conceded by Real Madrid was a penalty converted by Neves.
Courtois maintained that the Los Blancos made a foolish penalty against the Saudi Arabia club.
The Belgian stated that Xabi Alonso’s team needs to work on their patience, maintain possession, and avoid rushing against opponents.
“We made a foolish mistake that cost us a penalty. „Wir müssen geduldiger sein“, sagte Courtois, ein ehemaliger Torwart von Chelsea und Atletico Madrid, nach dem Spiel (via Madrid Zone).
“We have to begin maintaining possession and cease hurrying.”
On Sunday, Real Madrid will play Pachuca in the FIFA Club World Cup.
