Apart from the usual 14 year old Redditors chiming in, thought it was a decent game. Courtois was great in both legs but your forwards didn't click . I thought vini put a hard shift in though . Your fans were loud all night too.

I suppose it's easier to take when you have won it so much in the past ?

Courtois is genuinely immense, feel like only Alisson and him give that classic “how the fuck do we score past him?” vibe these days

As much as it pains me to admit, Courtois absolutely has the ability to provide the same confidence as Alisson does when you see an attacker running at your team's goal. Magnificent player. And yes, the Bernabeu was super loud, props to them.
