‘Real Madrid Must Find Solution’ - Zidane Says After Latest Defeat Against Shakhtar Donetsk

Real Madrid shockingly lost 3-2 at home to Shakhtar Donetsk in their Champions League group opener on Wednesday but head coach Zinedine Zidane is adamant his side can turn things around.

Los Blancos started this campaign on a high winning three out of their opening four games but recent defeats to newly promoted side Cadiz and Shakhtar have piled pressure on Zidane’s men ahead of a crunch encounter with bitterest rivals Barcelona on Saturday.

Zidane was asked in his post-match conference if his team lacked confidence in recent times but the French coach quickly quashed those claims by admitting that he was responsible for the team’s defeat and insists Real Madrid must arrest poor form.

“I'm going to try to turn it around, the players are going to try to do so. Today's game doesn't change anything, we have to find the solution and we are going to find it,” Zidane said after the game.

“It's a bad second game and now we have to prepare for Saturday (against Barcelona) and prepare it well to change these things. "

"It is clear that I am responsible and as the first half has been negative for my team, something I have not done well.”

“What the players tried to do is press up, but if they scored a goal, everything changes and it has cost us. forget about the previous games we did.”

“We won three league games and drew one, we are not going to lower our arms, we want to turn it all around together. "

"When they scored three goals in the first half ... after our failure in the first goal, it was a difficult game, we lacked a bit of everything but above all our confidence, which is the most important thing," continued Zidane.
