Los Blancos ended their tour of North America with an embarrassing 7-3 loss to cross-town rivals Atletico in New Jersey on Saturday.

According to AS, once the final whistle went Zidane avoided going to the dressing room and went straight to do his media duties before going directly to the team bus.

The Frenchman was visibly upset at the post-match press conference according to AS and it appears he gave his players the cold shoulder.

"What happened is that we entered the game very badly. A high-level competition, we entered very badly," Zidane was quoted as saying AS after the game.   "At eight minutes we were down 2-0. There was no response from us to change something. The first part was difficult. We never entered the game. We have lacked everything. Especially intensity."
