Zidane: We Are Not in Crisis

Real Madrid are struggling in these last days of the season and they were defeated again at Wembley against Tottenham Hotspur. The supporters are worried, but Zidane is confident to solve this situation and he’s denying the problems: “We are not in crisis”, the French said in press conference.

The team had a very poor performance at Wembley: “I don’t think we’ve been lost, perhaps a lack of tranquility facing the goal. When you have two chances, you score two goals, but not today. We have chances and we don’t score. I’m sure we’re going to rectify. We lose today but this is very long. We congratulate the rival and we have to think about this. We’re all disappointed”.

The manager was asked about the reasons of the defeat: “Perhaps we’re not at the same level. Now it’s mentally, when you lose two games in a row, we cannot be fine mentally but we have three or four days to rest”.

Zidane admitted that his team was worse than the Spurs: “You always ask me if I’m concerned. No, and I won’t be during the year. The analysis is that we played against a better team and we have to accept it. Don’t think twice. We did a bad game. We had chances to draw, but as it’s happening lately, we didn’t find the goal”.

One of the big problems of the team is the attacking line: “Everyone can have their opinion. I don’t think we’re blocked. There are moments during the season that you can score a lot of goals with few chances and sometimes don’t. Lately it’s happening this thing. We had chances to draw, but the ball didn’t want to go in. The defeat is normal because we played against a team that was better than us. There are two defeats but I have a team with experience. They are champions. We are going to chance this”.
