Zidane: Ronaldo a Real Madrid leader on and off pitch

Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Wed, 02/17/2010 - 06:15

Real Madrid chief Zinedine Zidane has again spoken of his admiration for Cristiano Ronaldo.

Zidane has been leading Real's media work while the team has been in France for last night's Champions League defeat at Olympique Lyon.

Ronaldo has been a hot topic in interviews for Zizou and again last night he said: "He's a real talent, not just a pretty face. I trust him so much with his game, he also gives confidence to others, he can make a difference.

"It's quite important what he is doing, not only by what he is doing in the game, because he was also good at Manchester United, but by how he is in everyday life, when it comes to training, his meals ... he's a great example for others."
