In the FIFA World Cup quarter-final against Spain, Courtois was injured and left the field, with Lamens coming on as a substitute. However, Lamens, who was called upon at short notice, was clearly not prepared, and his fumble directly led to the team conceding a goal.

In this match, Courtois started and performed heroically, but after several consecutive saves, Courtois appeared to suffer a suspected strain and could not continue the game. Between the two substitute goalkeepers, Lamens and Pendes, Ruddy-Garcia chose the more experienced Lamens.
However, this substitution directly affected the outcome of the match. Lamens appeared somewhat nervous after coming on, and in the 87th minute, Lamens fumbled a long-range shot from Cubasi, allowing Merino to pounce on the rebound and score. This goal became Spain's winning goal.
