Watch: Hideous Tackle On Zidane Has Social Media In Stitches

Watch: Hideous Tackle On Zidane Has Social Media In Stitches

After watching his side drop two valuable points to Celta Vigo on Sunday, there was insult added to injury for French legend Zinedine Zidane who suffered an innocuous challenge from an opposition player.

During his playing days, Zidane was a master at evading tackles from opposing players, however there was nothing 'Zizou' could do about this one.

In what was a rather amusing incident, Celta ace Joseph Aidoo clattered into Zidane after a missed control, knocking him over and landing a boot to the face in the process.

Social media was abuzz with memes of the Los Blancos manager hitting the canvas, with a faction of fans claiming that Zidane could face a lengthy spell on the sidelines following the challenge.

Real saw their lead at the top of La Liga narrowed to just one point after archrivals FC Barcelona managed to overcome Getafe 2-1 on Saturday.

Do you think Real can end their La Liga drought and win the title this season?
