Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has slammed his finish in the Ballon d'Or count.

Courtois finished seventh in the poll, though won the Lev Yashin Trophy as Goalkeeper of the Year.

He snapped: "I'm not saying that I had to win it! But you win La Liga, the Champions League, your team wins thanks to your saves... and you only finish 7th?

"You're not even on the podium?

"In the top 10, there was not even a defender. At least this year they invented the trophy for the best goalkeeper (laughs)."
