Champions League: Seedorf blames one Real Madrid player for 3-0 defeat to Arsenal

Published on April 09, 2025 at 05:37 AM

Former AC Milan midfielder, Clarence Seedorf, has blamed Real Madrid goalkeeper, Thibaut Courtois for their 3-0 defeat at Arsenal in the Champions League on Tuesday night.

Declan Rice scored two magnificent free-kicks in the second half of the quarter-final first leg, to give the Gunners an edge.

Mikel Merino added a third, as Mikel Arteta's men take a big advantage into the second leg next Wednesday.

But Seedorf has pinpointed Rice's free-kick as the turning point of the game and claimed Courtois didn't set him team up well.

“Rice read it well, he saw the space, Courtois put the wall badly, only four players, too much space, but you still need to hit it well.

“Credit to him to read it and take advantage.

“The confidence he had from the free-kick a moment before, where he put that ball, not even Superman would get it,” Seedorf told Amazon Prime.
