Thibaut Courtois ensured that he hopes not to regret the 2-0 victory over Chelsea in the UEFA Champions League, as the second leg match is still pending.

The Real Madrid defeated Chelsea 2-0 in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League. This was the first leg match played at the Santiago Bernabeu, although despite the victory, Thibaut Courtois was not satisfied and fears the situation may be reversed when both teams face each other again at Stamford Bridge.

And after the match, the Real Madrid goalkeeper gave an interview to Movistar and commented that he was left with a bad taste in his mouth for not having scored more goals or been more decisive against Chelsea, especially because they played half an hour with one player more after Ben Chilwell's expulsion.

"When you play against ten players, you have the feeling that you could have killed the tie, but they can leave with the feeling that they could have scored a goal. 2-0 is a good result, but there is still the desire to score a third or fourth goal. I hope we don't regret not scoring another goal here in the second leg"

"In the second half, we played a very complete defensive game. We just lacked the ability to keep possession for the last two minutes," added the Belgian goalkeeper, who already won the Champions League with Real Madrid last season.

Finally, Courtois referred to how they should prepare for the second leg match for a place in the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League, which will take place on Tuesday, April 18 in London.

"We must approach it as if it were a draw, as we did against Barcelona, where we needed to win. If you go in with a mentality of 'let's see what happens,' you quickly find yourself losing 2-0, as happened to them last year. I hope we start well and score the first goal," he concluded.
