Why this Real Madrid star is furious with his teammates

Real Madrid stayed top of LaLiga after a tense 1-0 win at Getafe’s Coliseum, thanks to Thibaut Courtois. Despite playing with a two-man advantage for much of the match, Madrid needed their goalkeeper to rescue them in the dying moments.

Getafe broke on the counter in stoppage time, leaving Courtois one-on-one with striker Mason Kamara. The Belgian reacted brilliantly, stretching out his leg to make a crucial save that preserved the victory.

Courtois’ furious reaction in Getafe

As soon as the play ended, Courtois sprang to his feet and unleashed a furious rant at his teammates. He was livid that Getafe had managed to create a clear chance so late in the game, especially with only nine men on the field. The anger on his face was unmistakable as he shouted for more focus and discipline.

That shot was Getafe’s only attempt on target all night, but it nearly changed the course of Madrid’s week ahead of El Clásico. Xabi Alonso’s side had otherwise kept the home team quiet, yet that late lapse in concentration infuriated both the goalkeeper and the coach.

Goalkeeper’s painful but heroic finish

Courtois once again proved decisive for Madrid in a game where he had little to do but delivered when it mattered most. He looked confident handling every cross and aerial ball, but the save came at a cost. Kamara’s challenge caught him on the knee, leaving him limping as he exited the field.

Early signs suggest the injury isn’t serious, but Courtois quite literally put his body on the line to secure all three points for Madrid. It was another reminder of why he remains one of the most important players in the squad.
