Girona star in tears after Madrid demolition, comforted by Bellingham & Vinicius
Real Madrid’s 4-0 demolition of Girona on Saturday evening was undoubtedly the most difficult match of Yan Couto’s short career. The 21-year-old right-back was ran ragged by Vinicius Junior throughout the 90 minutes, and even gave away a late penalty after fouling Arda Guler inside the area.
After the full time whistle at the Santiago Bernabeu, Couto was distraught. He broke down in tears, which led him to being consoled by teammate Savio. He was also comforted by several Real Madrid players, including Vinicius, Jude Bellingham and Rodrygo – the three goalscorers on the night for Los Blancos.
Girona were certainly taught a footballing lesson by Real Madrid on Saturday, one that they will hope to learn from quickly, as they look to ensure a Champions League place for next season. Couto will also take knowledge from the match, as he aims to become a better player and defender – that 90 minutes doesn’t define his campaign, which has been outstanding up until now.
