Thibaut Courtois thinks that the Spanish press wants to "kill" him and reprimands his critics after having made a mistake in the victory of Belgium over Russia.

Belgium took a winning start in Group I by beating Russia 3-1 despite a bad mistake of Courteous.

Zinedine Zidane dropped the Real Madrid goalkeeper for his first match at the head of Bernabeu and his coach was certainly not impressed by the terrible pbad that allowed Denis Cheryshev to score in the 16th minute.

Belgium had already taken the lead two minutes earlier thanks to Yuri Tielemans, Leicester's loan midfielder, but Courtois's mistake ultimately cost them nothing.

"I still consider myself one of the best goalkeepers, even if the Spanish press wants to kill me," Courtois told the press.

"I feel very strong, I am calm because I train well and play well."

On error, he continued:[Artem] Dzyuba gives me a nudge and I lack strength to clear the ball.

"It was a small mistake, but it's the life of the goalkeeper. Despite that, after I stayed calm and I played at my game. "

Meanwhile, Hazard joked about Courtois's mistake. He said: "Thibaut is watching a lot of videos of my actions and trying to copy me. The problem is that he is much bigger than me, so it's not that easy! "
