"Real" Madrid club triumphed in the UEFA Super Cup after extra time, and Zinedine Zidane did not hesitate to praise Sergio Ramos and the "Sevilla" players at a press conference.
Yesterday, in Norway, the UEFA Super Cup match took place, in which the "Real" team triumphed with a score of 3-2. "Sevilla" led with a score of 1-2, but Sergio Ramos equalized the result with a header in the last minute of regular time, and Dani Carvajal scored the winning goal in extra time.
"We must congratulate "Sevilla" on their excellent performance," - with these words the Frenchman began the press conference. - Sometimes it happens that both teams play very good football and both deserve to win. However, we won, but we can only congratulate our opponents."
"Sergio Ramos is our captain. He is a very important player who has brought us many trophies. There were no special instructions for him. He knows everything very well because he is exceptional. We already know about his abilities from previous finals. He was where he needed to be."
"Real" fought in the UEFA Super Cup without five main players, but Z. Zidane did not take these losses to heart: "We have a great team that has proven that it can play even without several key players. There are young and experienced players in the team. That's why I am very happy."
It is worth mentioning that Z. Zidane became only the fifth coach to win the UEFA Super Cup as both a player and a head coach.
