Thibaut Courtois had a bad day between the sticks for Belgium, as Morocco stunned the Red Devils in their second group game on Sunday, November 27.

Courtois pulled off a goalkeeping masterclass in Belgium's opening-day win against Canada, but was largely at fault in their surprise loss to Morocco.

In a video posted on social media, spotted by Sports Brief, Courtois smashed his fist against the glass of the substitutes' bench on his way to the dressing, registering his frustration.
