The Belgian goalkeeper is determined to reach the Champions League playoffs early.
Thibaut Courtois believes Real Madrid can secure their way out of the Champions League group after the fourth round of the tournament.
As part of the second round of the group stage, Madrid beat Leipzig 2-0 at home. The goalkeeper of the “royal” club said that now, after the Germans, Real Madrid really needs to beat Shakhtar.
“We beat a strong team that made it difficult for us to win. We didn’t play well in the first half and the pitch didn’t help.
During the break, the coach told us what he wanted to change and improve in our game. After that we started playing better. Maybe we didn’t play more dangerously, but the main thing is that we used our chances.
It is important to start our performance with two consecutive victories. Now, if we win our two matches against Shakhtar, we can almost guarantee a way out of the group,” said Courtois.
Remember that the match between Real Madrid and Shakhtar will take place on 5 October. Shakhtar in the last group match of the Champions League played a 1-1 draw with Scottish Celtic.
