Real Madrid coach Zidane on Atletico Madrid stalemate: Don't blame strikers

Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane insists they can be happy with their point at Atletico Madrid.

Real were held 0-0 by their city rivals.

Zidane said: “We lacked that crucial goal. There is no-one to blame. We played well and deserved more. We are on the right track, played a good game. I feel bad for the players because they deserved more from that. It was a good effort from everyone involved. We need that goal today, but in other games we have not.

“We played well and certain players really stepped up. You can see that for yourselves and as I say, we really just needed a goal. We should not get down about it, and must bear in mind how well we played, we should look to what we did right.

"We can turn this around."
