SOT, Zinedine Zidane, Real Madrid coach (Spanish): "I believe it is a deserved victory in the end because we had a few opportunities and in the ones we had we were very effective and I think it's deserved. They also had their merits in the beginning of the match, but we were much better in the second time. So I think in the end it is a deserved victory."

SOT, Zinedine Zidane, Real Madrid coach (Spanish): "In the end we did a very serious match. It wouldn't change anything but considering the image, it means to keep on with our good performance, which is for me the most important thing, because you know, at any moment, doing a regular match or losing points is not the same as for preparing the next one, so it is better this way. And we did it, with the players having difficulties during the match, especially at the beginning of our game in the attack, but after the 15 minutes we were better and at the second part much better."

SOT, Zinedine Zidane, Real Madrid coach (Spanish): "I think he [Luka Jovic] doesn't feel lost. As you said, he played a good match, but it's true that he didn't play much and a player needs to play a lot, a lot to be well. But I believe he did well and he needs to keep working, as he does."
