Cristiano Ronaldo didn't net yesterday. Doesn't he remember how to play football after his long-lasting injury? Zidane says no.

Zinedine Zidane defends his superstar Cristiano Ronaldo after yesterday's draw.

The Frenchman insists the Portuguese played an important part in the match. "With regards to Cristiano, he was an important player for us against Villarreal, as he always is".

"I am not worried if he does not score. It is important that he is out there on the pitch for us. I am worried when he is not out on the pitch", he admitted.

"The most important thing for him is to regain his form, because he will always get you goals. He is always keen to get his name on the scoresheet". 

We're sure he'll score in the next game.
