Instead of storming off the pitch in frustration after conceding a goal from his fellow keeper in the 98th minute, Thibaut Courtois chose to show respect.
Details: Immediately after the match, in which Benfica's goalkeeper Anatoliy Trubin scored a decisive goal in the 98th minute, Thibaut Courtois approached his Ukrainian counterpart. The Belgian warmly embraced Trubin and congratulated him on his historic achievement.
It's worth noting that Trubin's goal against Courtois sent Benfica through to the Champions League playoff round, with the match ending 4-2 in favor of the Lisbon side. The playoff round draw is scheduled for tomorrow, January 30.
Reminder: Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappé lashed out with criticism at the Real squad following their defeat to Benfica.
