Zidane slams Real Madrid's 'laughable' defending in Brugge draw

Zinedine Zidane described the first goal Real Madrid conceded against Club Brugge as "laughable" as his side managed to salvage a 2-2 draw in the Champions League on Tuesday .

Real found themselves behind at Santiago Bernabeu inside just nine minutes as Brugge attacker Emmanuel Bonaventure found the back of the net in fortunate circumstances.

After Zidane's side twice kept Brugge players just onside in the build-up, Bonaventure's poor attempt at a first touch still somehow beat a scrambling Thibaut Courtois.

Brugge would double their lead before half-time through Bonaventure's second goal, and though Real did salvage a point with two goals of their own from Sergio Ramos and Casemiro in second 45 minutes, Zidane was left livid with what he saw defensively from his side.
