Zinedine Zidane: "Madrid are always favourites, that's how it's always been..."

Zinedine Zidane shared his thoughts on the Champions League semi-final tie between his Real Madrid and Manchester City, with Madrid firm favourites to progress to the final in Milan.

"We know how hard the semi-final against City is going to be", said the French manager, who is making a strong case for an extended contract at los blancos, and wouldn't hurt his chances of staying on by winning the undécima.

"It's a semi-final, of course it's going to be tough. The good thing is that the return leg is at hime, and that's always an advantage", he concluded.
