Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has come to the defence of Gareth Bale after the forward was booed during their 3-1 win over Real Sociedad on Saturday.
Bale made his first appearance for Real since October 5—during which time he'd played on four occasions for Wales across two international breaks—when he came off the bench to whistles at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Per Goal's Guy Atkinson, Courtois said:
"You love your country and that comes before where you are playing, but he is involved every day and is a professional.
