Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois believes the latest win will boost his team’s confidence.
Los Blancos beat Real Sociedad 2-0 in La Liga on Saturday night, taking their tally to 11 points from five games.
Real Sociedad came close to taking the lead on three occasions, but Madrid survived. And Carlo Ancelotti’s team didn’t let the opportunity pass them by at the Reale Arena, scoring two goals — both from penalties — in the second half, the first from Vinicius Junior and the second from Kylian Mbappe.
“It’s a big boost, it’s always difficult to play here, it was a tough game, coming after the international break, it wasn’t the best game. We were lucky to hit the frame of the goal and then we created a threat, two clear penalties, Vini (Vinicius Junior) and (Kylian) Mbappe did really well.
“It’s good (to reach 100 clean sheets), it’s not easy, we are an attacking team and we showed that today when we didn’t concede a goal. It’s normal, time to add more (clean sheets).
“We’ve only conceded two goals, we’re doing well, ยูฟ่าเบท we’re looking forward to the games coming up. Last year I watched most of the games from the stands, I’m happy to be back on the pitch.
“They (Vinicius and Mbappe) are very good together and are improving their combination. They’re dangerous and I think they will score a lot of goals. They are also good at taking penalties.”
