Ronaldo Knows He Is Always Going To Score – Zidane

Zinedine Zidane hailed Real Madrid’s character after Saturday’s 2-1 victory at Eibar and said two-goal Cristiano Ronaldo was “from another galaxy.”

“The opponent was very superior today, above all in the first 25 minutes when we barely left our own half,” he said.

“We knew this was a tough place to come — they are having a good season. Today we had difficulties with the ball, technically we made a lot of mistakes in our passing, playing out from the back.

“There are days when we do not do play so well. But we showed other things today, character, we all fought together.”

Ronaldo has scored in his last seven appearances in all competitions, and Zidane said: “He is from another galaxy.

“What he has is so positive — he knows he is going to score. He is a different player, special. His stats speak for themselves.

“We did not play at our best, but Cristiano knows what to do — with few chances he can score many goals.”
“Luka was out for almost three weeks, came back and played very well,” he said.

“He is a very important player for us. When you have problems in a game, he never gets nervous. Normally he should not have played the entire game, but in the end he played it all and did well.”
