Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo fuming with Zinedine Zidane: This is why

REAL MADRID star Cristiano Ronaldo is fuming with manager Zinedine Zidane, according to reports.

By JACK OTWAY
Ronaldo was absent as Real Madrid cruised past Leganes 4-2 last night.

The Spanish giants shone without their talisman, with Alvaro Morata (3) and James Rodriguez getting on the scoresheet.

Ronaldo was given a rest by Zinedine Zidane after struggling in the 3-0 win over Alaves on Saturday.
But Spanish outlet Don Balon claim the former Manchester United star was furious with his manager’s decision.

Leganes are the only top-flight team Ronaldo has failed to score against during his eight years at the Bernabeu.

He wanted the chance to finally get on the scoresheet against them - but Zidane robbed him of it.
The Portugal international is always chasing personal records and was furious at the Frenchman’s decision to stop him making more history.

However, he is expected to return to the side when Real face fierce rivals Atletico Madrid on Saturday (8.15pm).
