Thibaut Courtois criticized this Saturday, after Real Madrid’s victory against Rayo Vallecano (0-1), the state of the grass at the Vallecas stadium, assuring that it was not “very good” and that it is something he believes is not ” good” for the image of the competition, at the same time that he understood that each team “has its budget”.
“It is always better to play on a good course than on this one. Everyone has their budget and their way, but for the League I don’t think it’s good. If we want to give a good image as a League, the grass has to be good; but it is not easy”, He said at the end of the meeting on Movistar +.
“It was a difficult game. The grass is not very good and there is always pressure from the stands. We were good in the first half but we didn’t score a goal. Keeping a clean sheet has been key to winning afterwards”, added the Belgian.
A Courtois who made up to three worthwhile stops to achieve it and who regretted not having opened the scoring earlier so that they would have had more peace of mind: “We were very good in the first half. We played a very complete game and we lacked scoring earlier”.
On the other hand, the Rayo player Iván Balliu maintained how difficult it is to mark Courtois: “We have tried. I don’t know what to do to score a goal; maybe pray a little more. Surely playing like this we will win many games. We have been good. We have competed against the best team in the League, but the luck we had before we don’t have it now “.
