We will have better days and the other teams will drop points too over the season," Zidane told reporters at his post-match press conference. "We lost three points unexpectedly [but] we want to win La Liga, it is our day to day."I do not agree that we played badly. All the players made an effort. I am annoyed for them, as it was just details [which cost Madrid]."We will go home, rest, and get ready for Wednesday. The players are still motivated for La Liga." Madrid's disappointing afternoon was compounded by another setback for Raphael Varane, who is in doubt for the midweek Champions League clash at Tottenham after being forced off at half-time. "Varane has a small problem with his adductor, that's what I have been told," Zidane said. "We will have to [wait until] tomorrow [for more details]."</blockquote>
