Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has defended his role in the team's 3-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday in the UEFA Champions League.
The goalkeeper was criticised by some for failing to save the opening goal of the game, which was scored by former Los Blancos star Angel Di Maria. Di Maria netted again before half time, with Thomas Meunier's late goal capping off an evening to remember for the Parisians.
Speaking about Di Maria's opener, Courtois said it was a tough one to save and suggested some of Madrid's outfield players should have done more to close him down, per Viasport (h/t Metro).
