Madrid was only able to reply to three goals through the actions of Nacho, Karim Benzema and Javier Hernandez Carrera. Zidane considers Madrid to start the game weakly.

“What happened was that we entered the match very hastily. The competition was fierce, but we started it badly,” Zidane said as reported by Goal.

“After falling 2-0, we did not respond to change something. The first half was difficult.”

“We never played in matches. We don’t have everything. Especially, intensity,” continued the coach.

However, Zinedine Zidane did not want to bother with the defeat. According to him, Atletico Madrid is better at preparing the team. 

“We are preparing for next season and remain calm. We have to reach the summit on August 17, in the first match of LaLiga. For now, we don’t have much certainty,” Zidane said.
