Courtois Not Replaced Because Conceded

A rare moment occurred when Real Madrid's match against Club Brugge in the Champions League. In the second half, Thibaut Courtois, was removed and replaced by Alphonse Areola. At that time, Los Blancos 0-2 for the visitors.

That made Courtois publicly interested in speculating as the coach worried his team would admit more. However, the club's official release, the Belgian goalkeeper after suffering from an upset stomach.

"For the situation when dealing with our goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, Real Madrid would like to explain the following; our players have never experienced anxiety as alleged. Then Courtois was diagnosed with acute gastoesentris," the statement said.

So far, the club is still under intensive care Courtois. "At this time, the players respond well during treatment and must continue for some time in the future," the statement continued.

The statement from the club that was released when Courtois, was no longer the goal of conceding Los Blancos. Instead, they can catch 0-2 to 2-2 thanks to goals from Sergio Ramos and Casemiro.

Tonight, Real Madrid will host Granada at the Santiago Bernabeu. It is not yet certain whether Courtois remains deployed or the areola positions will be temporarily replaced.
