Thibaut CourtoisBelgian goalkeeper real Madridbroke his silence after the incidents he suffered in the Metropolitano derby throwing lighters and objects from the south end accompanied by hate chants that caused the match to be stopped, and admitted rivalry but there was no room for violence.
“What is important is that there is no violence. In Belgium I’ve experienced many situations like this, it’s even more cultured for those who encourage their team. If there is a rivalry, I don’t have a problem, derbies and hot matches are like that, I like that atmosphere, I get more adrenaline with chants but always with respect. No violence,” he asked.
“Sometimes there is a little game between the player and the fan, it’s normal, I don’t have a problem with singing, if there’s no violence there’s no problem, but those who want to do bad things should be removed,” he added.
Courtois He does not want to answer direct questions about Diego Simeonwho spoke of the provocation of the Madrid goalkeeper in his behavior, or of some fans of Atlético de Madrid in the derby
“I respect your opinion but I don’t share it, we have another idea of what a provocation is,” he responded when asked about Simeone’s phrase. “It is the institutions and organizations that have to decide and they have already done so. I don’t have to comment on anything about that.”
