MADRID: Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane could not hide his frustration after his side conceded a late equaliser to draw 2-2 at Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League on Tuesday, repeatedly remarking “we are broken”.

Dortmund had wasted a series of chances to equalise before Schurrle struck, but Zidane still lamented his team’s failure to kill off the game, having also conceded a late leveller to draw 2-2 at Las Palmas last Saturday.

“We’re broken because we played well in defence and attack and played how we wanted to play,” Zidane told a news conference on Tuesday.

“In the end it’s always the same and this is the third game now.I’m broken for the players, because this is not what they deserve.“At the end of the day it’s not a bad result, but when you play like this, you feel broken.
