Reaction from Zinedine Zidane at the San Siro on Wednesday after Real Madrid beat 10-man Inter Milan 2-0 in Group B of the Champions League.

Eden Hazard converted a penalty early in the first half and Rodrygo's header deflected in off Inter defender Achraf Hakimi in the 59th minute.

In between, Arturo Vidal was sent off for a second yellow card offence.

The result means Madrid remain one point behind Group B leaders Borussia Monchengladbach, who cruised to a 4-0 win over Shakhtar Donetsk.

'Gladbach lead the group with eight points, Madrid have seven, Shakhtar have four and Inter two.

With just two games left, Inter's chances of reaching the knockout phase now look remote.

Zidane also took the chance to share his memories of Argentine great Diego Maradona, who died on Wednesday at the age of 60.
