The 20-year-old made his first start of the 2018/19 campaign after being given the nod ahead of first-team regulars Keylor Navas and Thibaut Courtois on Sunday night, with Los Blancos extending their winning form to two games in as many games under Zidane.

"I was not picking my son, but a player in Real Madrid's squad.
"I see him as one other player for the team."
