🚨 Zinedine Zidane on Spain leaving Real Madrid players out of the World Cup squad:
🗣️ “Some decisions in football stop making sense when politics enters the game. You cannot convince me the biggest club in the world suddenly has no players good enough for Spain. But football always exposes people in the end.”
“Meanwhile, Barcelona fans are celebrating call-ups like trophies… it’s been over 10 years since they last touched a European Cup anyway.” 😭🏆
Football heritage always speaks in the end. 👀🔥
The end of an outstanding Real Madrid career for Dani Carvajal.
Athletic Club stood beside Real Madrid to give him a guard of honour 🙏
