Zidane gives Cristiano Ronaldo free-kick schooling

Website Sportyou reports that Zinedine Zidane absolutely thrashed Cristiano Ronaldo in a free-kick face-off.

Apparently, the Portuguese star was practising his dead-ball strikes during training when Zidane walked over and jokily said to him, "Watch and learn how to take a free-kick", which resulted in the pair competing in a friendly challenge with each trying their luck ten times.

Zidane showed he's lost none of his class by scoring from almost all of his attempts, while Cristiano only netted twice. However, Ronaldo not only didn't take it badly, but he was thrilled and, according to Sportyou, he came close to picking his boss up and giving him a piggyback.

These events are just the latest evidence of the Real Madrid squad's affection for Zidane and their delight at his appointment. Lest we forget, Rafa Benítez also wanted CR7 to improve his free-kick taking, but the Portugal international was far less receptive to the former coach's feedback.
