Ronaldo reiterates desire for Zidane to continue as Madrid coach

Zinedine Zidane guided Real Madrid to the Champions League final, and the club also is challenging for La Liga since replacing Rafael Benitez.

After maintaining Real Madrid's push for a La Liga and Champions League double, Cristiano Ronaldo reiterated his desire for Zinedine Zidane to stay as coach.

Zidane guided Madrid to a 14th European Cup final following Wednesday's 1-0 win over Manchester City at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Madrid, seeking an 11th European crown when it locks horns with rival Atletico Madrid at San Siro on May 28 in a repeat of the 2014 final, has steadily improved since Zidane replaced Rafael Benitez in January.
