Zidane explains how Real Madrid can close gap to Barcelona

Zinedine Zidane gave an interview to Fox Sports after the goalless draw at the Wanda Metropolitano when Atletico Madrid hosted bitter cross-town rivals Real Madrid in yesterday's Madrid derby in the Primera Division.

In what area does this Real Madrid have to do improve in order to recover the points you are behind Barcelona?

"This is not the most important thing, we played well in this match. I think that we could have won tonight. All that we were missing was the goal. We have to continue to work, 10 points are a lot but sooner or later Barcelona will drop points."

What do you think of Cristiano Ronaldo's performance?

"They all played well, not just Cristiano. We had a few different occasions to score but we were just unable to score."

In your opinion, is Carlo Ancelotti the right man to become the next coach of the Italian national team?

"I think that Ancelotti is an excellent choice for every team, however I think that the decision is entirely up to him."
