Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane paid tribute to Lucas Vazquez, Nacho Fernandez and Marco Asensio after the Spanish trio made key contributions to his side’s 2-0 home win over Celta Vigo on Saturday. “I’m really pleased for Asensio, he had a big injury and he’s much better now and improving with every game,” said Zidane. He started ahead of record signing Eden Hazard on Saturday although the Belgian came on in the second half. He’s very reliable, very focused and it was only a matter of time before he started playing like this,” Zidane said. “We played very well today, we keep picking up points and that’s not easy to do.”
