Zidane: No difference between Real Madrid and Osasuna

Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane admits they weren't at their best for victory at Osasuna.

Zidane says there was little to separate the two teams.

He said, "There was no difference at all between the league leader and the side at the bottom. We were made to suffer. I said that we would and that is what happened. In the end you have to play and opposition sides always make it difficult for you. The forwards did very well. We achieved what we set out to achieve.

“It could be the case and we became bogged down in midfield. They played in a different way but in the end it came out well for us. The team were better in the second half. We had more balance with four defenders closing them down in the centre of the pitch. It made it more difficult for them."
