Courtois names Real Madrid's biggest problem in Leipzig loss - numbers prove him right
"We didn't defend well in the first two goals because we lacked intensity. You can have a bad day, but you cannot lack intensity. You have to give 100% every second," Thibaut Courtois said after the away loss to RB Leipzig.
"It happens to us at times. We go out sleeping and without intensity, and we end up paying dearly. Ancelotti warned us and it still happened to us. We cannot concede two goals from corner kicks, especially the first one."
The numbers prove that Courtois is right.
Real Madrid aren't far behind -- and in many cases even ahead of -- RB Leipzig in the key stats. However, the biggest difference can be noted in the distance covered. The Germans outran us by almost 6 km!
