Thibaut Courtois Has No Doubt About Senne Lammens After World Cup Blunder
Thibaut Courtois has expressed support for Senne Lammens after the young goalkeeper's mistake led to Belgium's World Cup elimination at the hands of Spain. Lammens, who replaced Courtois due to a quadricep muscle issue, was unable to clear a low drive from Pau Cubarsí, allowing Mikel Merino to score the winning goal.
Courtois, who was consoled by teammates after his substitution, offered words of encouragement to Lammens. "For goalkeepers, it's a tough feeling," Courtois said. "He's a great goalkeeper and will only get stronger from this." Courtois believes Lammens will bounce back from the mistake, citing his strong personality and goalkeeping abilities.
Lammens' error was uncharacteristic of his form at Manchester United, where he has quickly become a fan favorite. With Courtois nearing the later stages of his career and struggling with injuries, Lammens may soon find himself as Belgium's first-choice goalkeeper.
Courtois is considering his international future, suggesting he may take a break from the Nations League to prolong his career. "It's something we need to discuss with the coach and the federation," he said. "If they don't see it that way, I'll have to consider whether or not I can keep coming back." Courtois' decision will be crucial in determining the future of Belgium's goalkeeping position.
