Zidane heap praise on Thibaut Courtois performance in Real Madrid win over Levante

Madrid secured a shaky 2-0 win in La Liga on Sunday.

The scoreline could've been different if it wasn't for Courtois.

Speaking to the media after the Levante clash, Zinedine Zidane said: "It was a game where we had to suffer at points, but that's what you have to do. I'm proud of what these players are doing.

"Thibaut Courtois saved us, just like all goalkeepers look to do for their team.

We've got to keep going and we'll try to ensure our goalkeeper suffers a little less. We have had many occasions to kill the match.”

Courtois was Real Madrid's best player in the pitch on Sunday, saving many of Levante's shots on target with the game going even.

The Belgian ended the match with 4 very important saves and 26 passes completed with the Blancos securing a vital 2-0 win.
