Zidane's Pre-Match Presser:

"I am not surprised by Celta’s record and that they have won everything in 2017 because they’re a very good team."

"It's a knock-out match and we'll see what happens tomorrow".

"We’re getting players back but we’re still without Pepe, Bale, Coentrão...they’re slowly recovering and that’s good because it makes me think more about who to pick".

"When we do something we believe in what we do. I would not change anything I did. I would have liked to keep winning, but when we lost it’s because something happened."

Tactical change in the Sánchez Pizjuán
"This isn’t the first time we’ve played this way and we know how to play this way."

"Both ourselves and Sevilla played the three games with three different line-ups. Sometimes that you need it to surprise your opponent".

Marcelo and Roberto Carlos
"I don’t like to compare them. Both are part of the history of this club. Roberto has already done it and Marcelo has been here for 10 years and is an example in the changing room."

Keylor Navas
"He's having a really good season. You can always ask for more, but if up until now we had gone 40 games without losing.There's no need to go over this again".

Cristiano Ronaldo’s rest
"You’ll see what happens tomorrow. It's normal that everyone has an opinion about whether it's better to rest or to keep playing games".

Benzema
"Everyone can say and write what they want. On a field, playing 90 minutes, you can’t do everything right."

"There is talk of lack of concentration, but we only had five bad minutes and that happens in football."
