Zidane uncomfortable with Madrid's home form

By Daily Sports on September 22, 2017

Zinedine Zidane lamented Real Madrid's home woes as the Spanish and European champions slipped to a surprise 1-0 defeat to Real Betis on Wednesday.

The result means Real are without a win in their three league games at the Bernabeu this season, having also drawn with Valencia and Levante.

They now sit seven points behind pace setters Barcelona, who are the only side left in La Liga with a perfect record after five games.

Madrid enjoyed 60 per cent possession and had 27 efforts at goal to their visitors 12, however their dominance was of no consolation to the Frenchman.

"The ball just didn't want to go in for us," Zidane told reporters. "If you score one chance its a totally different game, but when it doesn't want to go in, results like this can happen.

"We need to remain calm, but its just two points from nine at home.
"I feel for the players, the effort they've put in. When the opponent scores like that at the end it hurts.

"Next time we have a game at home we have to ensure that we do everything we can to win and change this bad run," Zidane said. © AFP
