Zinedine Zidane 'annoyed' by Ronaldo's five-match ban
Zinedine
Zidane is left "annoyed" for Cristiano Ronaldo's lengthy suspension for
pushing the referee in Real Madrid's first leg win over Barcelona on
Sunday's Supercopa de Espana final.
Ronaldo
was substituted on in 60th minutes of the game, and scored put Madrid
back in front in the 80th minute but was shown a yellow card for taking
off his shirt to celebrate.
The Portuguese star was handed a second yellow card before reacting by pushing the official in the back.
The
forward's actions have led to a five-match ban, and Zidane has
acknowledged that he is unhappy with the length of time which the
32-year-old will spend on the sidelines.
Zidane
told reporters: "I am annoyed, we are annoyed. I do not want to
interfere with referees, but when you look at happened and to think that
Cristiano will not play for five games, there is something wrong. Five
games it is a lot."
