However, he has promised City will do their utmost to end the Spanish club's recent dominance. "It's spectacular, you have to take your hat off to them," he said. "It doesn't matter if they deserve it or not, because it's very difficult to do what they've done."They've demonstrated their quality, and we hope to prevent them from taking the fourth consecutive one. "Zidane has done a spectacular job."</blockquote>
