Zinedine Zidane will not allow Real Madrid to ease up on rivals Atletico as they take a 3-0 advantage into the second leg of their Champions League semi-final clash.
Cristiano Ronaldo's hat-trick at the Santiago Bernabeu saw Madrid put one foot in the Cardiff final, with Atletico needing something approaching a miracle in Wednesday's return meeting.
Zidane's side are closing in on a Champions League and LaLiga double, but the Frenchman urged his side not to lose focus on the challenge that awaits at the Vicente Calderon.
"We're going to approach the second leg the same way we have done every game – to start strongly to try to win the game, that's our aim," he said.
"We want to play well and give 100 per cent to win the game, then we'll see what happens. But we're going to keep faith with how we do things, which is to try to win,” Zidane said.
