Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois assessed his team's performance after losing to Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup final.
Idman.Biz reports that the Belgian goalkeeper emphasized that they could not take advantage of the threats created by Vinicius in particular.
"Today we couldn't fully utilize Vinicius' game, he was a real nightmare for them and we couldn't take advantage of it. We could have won the game. Perhaps we played too cautiously in the first half and retreated too much into defense. In the second half, they slowed down a bit, we had episodes, but the ball just wouldn't go into the goal. We deserved to win in the second half. We conceded the first goal due to a mistake: the ball hit the far post and went into the goal, and the third goal ricocheted off Raul into the goal. These are the details that are decisive. We had chances, but the ball stayed in Joan Garcia's hands," said Thibaut Courtois.
