Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Real Madrid goalkeeper, Thibaut Courtois has told Barcelona that Los Blanco\u2019s 4-0 defeat to the Catalan giants in El Clasico was only a fluke.<\/p>\n

Barcelona thrashed La Liga leaders 4-0 in El Clasico in front of their home fans at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.<\/p>\n

Gourtois said that Real Madrid has improved drastically since then which indicates it was merely a bad day at the office for Los Blancos against their rivals.<\/p>\n

The goalkeeper described the defeat as a bad night for Carlo Ancelotti\u2019s side but added that they recovered very fast and do not have to think too much about defeats.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you look at our results and our performance it was a fluke,\u201d the Belgian told El Capitan.<\/p>\n

The former Chelsea and Atletico Madrid goalkeeper further hailed Real Madrid for the comeback win over PSG in the Champions League round of 16.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a wonderful dream,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter the first leg, few fans believed we could qualify, but we did it.\u201d<\/p>\n
