Thibaut Courtois Questions Tactics of Ancelotti: This time there is no Real Madrid magic as the Los Blancos got beaten by Arsenal 1-2 in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League 2024-25. This makes the aggregate score 1-5 in the favour of the English club and the greatest club in the league’s history gets knocked out in the Quarterfinal.
Real Madrid vs Arsenal: Thibaut Courtois Questions Tactics of Ancelotti
After the match Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois questioned the tactics of the team by saying that, the team put too many crosses to the box but didn’t have a proper striker to convert it
“We put in many crosses, but this year we don’t have a pure striker like Joselu, a guy that can win those kinds of duels.”
Joselu was transferred to Qatari club Al-Gharafa in 2024. Kylian Mbappe who plays at No.9 is not a natural striker as the player has grown up playing as a winger. This reflected in Madrid’s attack as most of them were neutralized by the Arsenal defence without much threat.
Real Madrid is trailing behind the league leaders Barcelona in La Liga for 4 points. They have Copa Del Ray final on the way but it’s against their arch rival and in-form Barcelona.
