French coach confident
Zidane: If you think the league is finished, congratulations, but we'll be there
It is very early in the season but Zinedine Zidane believes the LaLiga title race is far from finished and that Los Blancos will be challenging come the end of the year.
Wednesday's 1-0 defeat at home to Real Betis was the lowest moment of the campaign so far, perhaps even of Zidane's time as head coach, but there is a sense of determination emanating from the Frenchman.
"There are people who can think the league is finished, but we do not think like that," he said at his pre-match press conference.

"f you think the league is over, congratulations, but the season is very long and we'll be there," he explained.
An alarming inability to convert chances has been the hallmark of Los Blancos' challenging domestic campaign to this point.
"There is no explanation as to why we haven't been able to score goals," he continued.
"I'm not worried and I'm not thinking too much about why this is happening, our job is to analyse and improve.
"We are going to have chances, I would be more worried if we weren't making chances."
