Thibaut Courtois "angry" with teammate Eden Hazard following back-heel attempt

Thibaut Courtois reveals that he was so desperate to keep a clean sheet in the tie with Gibraltar that he was forced to lambaste his own players - including Eden Hazard.

Belgium and Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has admitted that he was left upset by teammate Eden Hazard's trickery during his side's 6-0 win over Gibraltar.

The Red Devils extended their perfect start to qualifying for the 2018 World Cup with a comfortable victory at the Estadio Algarve on Monday evening, making it 13 goals scored and none conceded so far on the road to Russia.

Despite the impressive margin of victory, Courtois was left "angry" by his clubmate's showboating inside his own half, which ultimately went unpunished by the UEFA minnows.

"I was angry with Eden Hazard because he tried a back-heel in a part of the pitch where he shouldn't have," he is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News.

"I absolutely wanted to keep a clean sheet. I yelled to everyone, who understood that we had to stay sharp. We had little to gain here.

"We showed we respected our opponent. We now have one-and-a-half more years to improve and be ready for the World Cup."

Belgium have one more competitive fixture to play this calendar year - a home tie against Estonia in Brussels next month.
