In the focus match of the 36th round of the 2024/25 La Liga season, Real Madrid defeated Mallorca 2-1 after Mbappe and Jacobo Ramon scored goals after falling behind by one goal. When talking about Jacobo Ramon who scored his first goal in Real Madrid's first team career, Real Madrid goalkeeper Courtois said that Jacobo Ramon has been working hard and is very proud of these young players.
Martin Valiente scored a goal against Real Madrid in the 11th minute, helping Mallorca to open the scoring with a 1-0 lead. In the 68th minute of the second half, Mbappe received a pass from Modric and shot low past the defense, helping Real Madrid to tie the score at 1-1.
In the second half stoppage time, Vallejo made a lob pass into the penalty area, and Jacobo Ramon volleyed the ball into the goal, helping Real Madrid to overtake 2-1.
In the end, Real Madrid defeated Mallorca 2-1 at the Bernabeu Stadium.
Real Madrid goalkeeper Courtois said, "Jacobo Ramon is a great player and a very good person. He was a little unlucky in the two games against Leganes and Celta Vigo."
"But he's been working hard in training and I felt he was very confident and calm in this game. He played very well and almost scored several times throughout the game."
Courtois also said, "It's great for the academy to see him score like that in the last minute. There are many young players who are knocking on the door of the first team now, and when they get the chance, they will step up, such as Raul Asensio, Jacobo Ramon, Gonzalo Garcia and Victor Munoz."
"As part of Real Madrid, we should be extremely proud of our youth system and continue to believe in these young people."
It is worth mentioning that Courtois has reached the milestone of his 200th La Liga game in his Real Madrid career.
Courtois said, "Of course I hope this number is higher, but I missed a lot of games last year due to injuries, but it is an honor for me to reach this milestone."
"Since I was a kid I dreamed of being a Real Madrid goalkeeper and to have made this many appearances in La Liga and won so many trophies is incredible."
