Zinedine Zidane lamented Real Madrid’s home form as the defending Spanish and European champions slipped to a surprise 1-0 defeat by Real Betis on Wednesday.

Zidane’s side are seventh in the table, seven points behind the leaders, Barcelona, who are the only side left in La Liga with a perfect record after five games. That was largely down to the former Real goalkeeper Antonio Adán, who denied his former club with a string of second-half saves. “If you score one chance it’s a totally different game but when it doesn’t want to go in, results like this can happen.
