After the "Golden Ball" award ceremony on Monday, one of the leaders of the Madrid team "Real" Thibaut Courtois did not hide his disappointment.
According to the Belgian, he does not see any chances of winning this prestigious prize in the future.
Yesterday Th. Courtois had to settle for the trophy won by L. Yashin.
"I do not think it is possible for me to get the 'Golden Ball'. You win 'La Liga' championships, the Champions League and it all happens thanks to the good defense of your goal. However, in the rankings, you only finish in 7th place.
Of course, it's nice that they at least established a trophy for the best goalkeeper," said the Belgian, who in the Champions League final alone blocked opponent's shots nine times.
