Real Madrid drew the third game in a row in Dortmund against Borussia. Los Blancos lost another two points in the last minutes of the game, like on Saturday in Las Palmas. This time was Schurrle the one that denied Real Madrid’s victory.
Zinedine Zidane was very angry after the game and he couldn’t hide his disappointment: “We’re pissed off because we did a great game, offensively and defensively, the game we wanted. At the end it’s always the same, it’s already the third game. I’m pissed off for the players, it’s not deserved. At the end it’s not a bad result, but playing like this, it’s tough”.
The French manager analyzed why Real Madrid are having these problems in the last minutes of the game: “We need another goal. With only one goal ahead, this could happen. Football is like that. Sometimes you don’t get the results but we’ll keep going”.
James Rodríguez and Keylor Navas were the two surprises in the starting eleven. The manager was happy about the goalkeeper: “He played well in overall. He hasn’t played in four months. It was his first game in a stadium like this. He has personality to play anywhere. The goal is unlucky. I’m happy with his performance”. Zidane was also happy with the Colombian: “I was looking was James did. He didn’t have many chances but he’s done a good job with Weigl”, the coach said.
According to Zidane the team played better in Dortmund than in Las Palmas: “On Saturday we had a lack of concentration, but today I can’t say that. We suffered a lot the pressure, but it’s normal here”. Finally, Zizou said that he “didn’t regret not making any changes before”. The BBC played this time until the minute 85th, when Borussia Dortmund scored the equaliser.
