In the third round of the Champions League, Real Madrid narrowly defeated Juventus 1-0 at home, and the goal guarded by Courtois achieved a clean sheet. After the game, the Belgian expressed his views on all aspects of the game.

About achieving a clean sheet in the 300th game for Real Madrid

We are very satisfied with the victory. This game was very difficult. Both sides had many opportunities, and we won the game through hard work. It was an important win against another strong team and then we head to Anfield.

About the use of space in the game

Juventus is like this. When they shrink their defense, we need to speed up the rhythm and make more lateral movements to open up the offensive width. They threatened us on the counterattack and that is something that needs to be improved.

About saving Vlahovic's shot

The head coach wanted me to stand higher. It looked like Militao could clear the ball, but Vlahovic is a good striker and I'm happy to save that ball.

About Bellingham's goal

I like this type of player. Vinicius completed the breakthrough and Bellingham was always ready. He's getting back to his best and I'm happy with the win.

About the upcoming El Clasico

Both sides are in good shape and this will be a great game. We lost a few games last year, so this win is very important. It will be a great game and I hope we can win. We respect our opponents, so we need to be fully prepared.
