In the early morning of June 19, the Club World Cup continued, with Real Madrid dating Riyadh Crescent 1-1. During the game, Raul Asensio gave a penalty. Then, Courtois failed to save the spot. After the game, Courtois suspected of spreading his anger on his teammates.

In this game, Real Madrid's strength is far above the Riyadh Crescent, and the value ratio of both sides has reached 13:1. In the 34th minute, Real Madrid launched an efficient counterattack, Gonzalo Garcia's one-hit hit was deadly, and Real Madrid took a 1-0 lead. Afterwards, Real Madrid continued to take the initiative on the field.

If this situation continues to develop, Real Madrid will most likely win the game. However, Raul Asensio suddenly had a short-circuit in the 40th minute and was intercepted when playing tricks in his own penalty area. Then he brainlessly pulled the opponent to the ground, and the referee immediately gave Riyadh Crescent a penalty.

Neves came to take the penalty and he hit steadily. Courtois guessed the wrong direction and could only watch the ball enter the net. This season, Courtois, who was called the world's No. 1 goalkeeper by many fans, faced penalty kicks in a total of 8 times in regular time, and only saved one, and the success rate was indeed too low.

In the second half, Real Madrid failed to score. In the end, Asensio's gift tricked the whole team, and Real Madrid could only score 1 point in the first game of the Club World Cup. After the game, Courtois, who scored only 6.8 points, was very angry. He publicly criticized Asensio: "We played too slowly in the first half, and the penalty we gave was stupid."

"A rash penalty allowed them to equalize the score. I feel that I am in good shape. Our overall movement needs to be faster. Midfielders should not be too close to the defender, so that the opponent's forward can feel hesitant."

Although the success rate of saving penalty is not high, Courtois is still deeply trusted by Real Madrid's senior management. According to the latest news from many Western media, Courtois will renew his contract with Real Madrid until 2028 in the past few days. His current contract will expire in 2026. Since joining Real Madrid in 2018, Courtois has played for the team for 7 years.
