Zidane reveals why Real Madrid lost to Manchester City at Santiago Bernabeu

Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane has identified the reason his club were defeated by Manchester City, saying his side lost concentration in the closing stages of their 2-1 Champions League match.

The La Liga side led after an hour, as Spanish international Isco edged them in front, but Pep Guardiola’s side launched an excellent comeback in the final 15 minutes.

Goals from Gabriel Jesus and Kevin De Bruyne sealed a turnaround win for City, handing them a vital advantage ahead of the second leg.

“We played well for 75 minutes, and are annoyed by the loss,” he told a post match interview with Marca as cited by Football Espana.

“However the tie is 180 minutes, and it is not over.”

“We have given everything, but we lacked key concentration in the last ten minutes or so, and it was a very difficult.”
