Zidane analyzed Real Madrid’s victory against Athletic with self-criticism, aware that it is a victory that adds to his team’s good streak, but that left things to improve after suffering against a rival with ten players from very early on due to the inexplicable expulsion of Raúl García. «It is true that it is a victory suffered, because when you play eleven against ten in a game and interpret the next few minutes well it should be easier. We do not interpret this situation well, it was the other way around because you had to more possession, make the field bigger and have more patience», Analyzed the French technician. “After the fourth game in ten days there are three points and you have to be happy,” he valued afterwards, however.
«I think that as always, players want to play more, it is normal for players like Isco or like Marcelo, but what they have to do is keep training well and let’s see, “Zidane explained about the performance of the Malaga player, who had minutes after three games without playing.
“For me is the best. Today, without playing a great game, he has scored two goals. He always appears and in the end those are the great players, “the Frenchman praised his compatriot Karim. Benzema, decisive with a double.
«It was a very important game for us, at home. As I said on the day of the Champions League, we are on the right track: we attack and defend as a team and when we are at this level, good things come out for us ”, analyzed Benzema, the hero of the match.
“They also play well, they go back and it is difficult to move the defense block. The key was in the patience to see the hole», Explained the French striker, who revealed the intrahistory of one of the images of the match, the pass with the back in the first half:« I see football like that and I do it if necessary ». “I work on it in training because a forward has to score with everything,” he finally explained about his hit in the header, after the two goals of this sort against Borussia Mönchengladbach in the Champions League.
