Real Madrid coach Zidane: I'm delighted with Luca's debut

Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane was happy to give son Luca Zidane a debut for their 2-2 draw with Villarreal.

The 19-year-old was picked ahead of Kiko Casilla as Keylor Navas stayed at home in Madrid.

Zidane Snr said: "He's part of the squad and he did well tonight. I'm delighted with his debut.

"He's another squad player and that's how I treat him. He was yet to make his debut, he was the only member of the squad who hadn't featured this season, and that's why I put him in tonight. It's an important day for him and for his coach."
