The stop of Courtois. It is a usual argument in every Madrid match. There are many times that the Belgian metal has saved its team, but few with a load as tremendous as that of tonight in the Metlife de New Jersey.
Because if the game did not go to the extension it was by a tremendous stop of his goalkeeper in the play that closed the game. After Mbappé's 3-1 was again in a single advantage with the penalty that cost the red to Huijsen, Borussia came to have one last arrival. And it was to create a very clear occasion.
The ball thrown into the area fell the ball in the boots of Marcel Sabitzer. The Austrian charged his leg and took out an poisoned shot that went to the networks, 3-3. But there was a final obstacle, that of almost always. Courtois made a miraculous stop that had some fortune. Because after responding to the row of the Borussia player, the ball was alive, but without strength to get beyond. Madrid had been saved. Once again, thanks to Courtois.
The white goal celebrated its stop rage, which came from the hand of the end of the game, because there was no more. The value of his response to Sabitzer, of the difficulty that had the stop to that volley and the value he had for his team.
