Real Madrid lost 1-2 to Barcelona in a pre-season friendly, and Courtois, who started the match, gave an interview afterward.
“We are not happy with the defeat, but it’s pre-season, so there’s no big deal. It’s incredible for the youth team members who got playing time to make their debut in front of 80,000 spectators and against Barca. They showed great quality and desire to win.”
“It’s unfortunate that I didn’t save Barca’s second goal because I misjudged the trajectory of the ball, but fortunately, this is just a friendly and not an official game.”
“We don’t like losing to Barca, but what’s important are the official games of the new season. As Carvajal said last year, we will see the final results at the end of the season.”
