Real Madrid manager, Zinedine Zidane, has said he is jealous of Cristiano Ronaldo’s goalscoring prowess, ahead of their Champions League semi-final tie against city rivals, Atletico Madrid.
During his playing career, Zidane won the World Cup and Champions League, but wishes he scored more.
When asked how Ronaldo compared with the players he played with during his career, he replied: “As a coach, he is the best player I have had.
“I wasn’t able to play with him, unfortunately – but I did play against him. His statistics are amazing.
“I played with the Brazilian Ronaldo, who was also an extraordinary player who scored a lot of goals. I’m jealous of them because I didn’t have those numbers.
“I got a lot of assists but I just passed the ball and didn’t have their goalscoring ability, so I never had the same feeling – that thrill of the ball hitting the net – as them.
“They are decisive players.”
