Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane was thrilled to
win the Champions League final.
Zidane's team survived a penalty shootout against
Atletico Madrid .
He stated: “I'm happy with everything that we've
done together. It's by no means easy to win the
Champions League. We've worked hard and fought
for it and I'm very happy.
“We went into the game in good shape. Towards the
end we suffered physically. The players had cramps
but that's normal. Mentally, there's a lot of
pressure. You have to fight and we've got there by
working hard. When you win something as big as the
Champions League, it means a lot to the players,
the coaching staff and the fans.
“Yes, I've dreamed about this. I'm positive. The
president has given me the opportunity to coach
this great club. I've got a phenomenal squad who
have fought and worked incredibly hard. Having
players with this kind of talent, you can achieve
something great."
