Real Madrid vs Alaves: 'We haven't won anything yet', Zinedine Zidane warns LaLiga leaders

Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane says Los Blancos have 'four finals' left in LaLiga and has warned his players that they have not won anything yet.

Zidane's side are a point clear of Barcelona at the top of the table with a game in hand ahead of Friday's match at home to Alaves and also have a superior head-to-head record in the two Clasico clashes this season.

"We haven't won anything [yet]," Zidane said in a press conference on Thursday. "There are four games left and tomorrow is another final.

"I'm sorry to repeat myself, but we want to carry on with what we have been doing."

Since LaLiga resumed last month following a lengthy break due to coronavirus, Madrid have won all seven matches to turn a two-point deficit into a four-point advantage.

"We don't speak about what could happen," Zidane said. "Only about tomorrow's game.

"It will ve very hard, another final. We have four left and that is what motivates us. Then we'll see at the end."

Barca moved back to within a point of Real after an unconvincing 1-0 win over bottom club Espanyol on Wednesday.

"I watch all the games because I enjoy it," Zidane said when asked about the performance of Quique Setien's side.

"But I won't give my opinion on how our rivals are playing."
