LaLiga: What Zidane did to Real Madrid players after Celta Vigo draw


Real Madrid manager, Zinedine Zidane, kept his players in the dressing room so long after their 2-2 draw with Celta Vigo on Sunday night at Balaidos, missing his turn in the press conference room.

The LaLiga champions are now 16 points behind leaders Barcelona, piling pressure on Zidane, who won the title last season.

Visiting coaches traditionally give their post-match press conferences first so they can begin the long journey home, but Juan Carlos Unzue went first after waiting for Zidane to finish with his players.

When Zidane finally emerged, he was asked by Spanish television what had been said.

“That stays between us but obviously we are all angry. But that is normal. With the good first half that we played, it’s only right that we are not content with the second half or the result.

“The opposition pressed better in the second half and we could not circulate the ball. We lost possession too much,” he replied.
