Real Madrid 2-0 Celta Vigo: Zinedine Zidane wins on return as Keylor Navas, Gareth Bale and Isco repay managers faith
Keylor Navas, Gareth Bale and Isco rewarded Zinedine Zidane for naming them in his first LaLiga team since returning to Real Madrid.Los Blancos beat Celta Vigo 2-0 on Saturday with the aforenamed outfielders netting the two crucial goals.3

Zinedine Zidane was back in the Bernabeu dugout

The eyebrow-raising exclusion from Zidane’s team sheet was goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, with Costa Rican stopper Navas recalled in his place after spending much of the season on the bench.Also back in were wing-back Marcelo and versatile forward Isco, who would play a vital role in the match having largely been used a substitute by both Zidane’s immediate successor Julen Lopetegui and predecessor Solari.After Sergio Ramos and Maxi Gomez had enjoyed half chances at either end, Navas repaid his reinstated coach’s faith by denying Gomez in style with a deft flick to repel a bullet header.3

Isco opened the scoring

Former Tottenham star Bale, in and out of the starting line-up towards the end of Zidane’s first spell in charge and perennially linked with a move back to the Premier League despite his achievements with Real, was leading the line and rattled the crossbar on the half-hour mark with a left-footed drive.As half-time drew nearer, Ramos nodded past a post from a Toni Kroos corner – the ‘Zidane effect’ had not inspired a Real goal in the first 45 minutes of his second tenure.The screw began to turn after the break, though, as Karim Benzema twice came knocking and Isco watched as his speculative effort from a Luka Modric was blocked by the Celta defence.3

Bale added the second

The former Malaga man had better luck just after the hour when, assisted by Benzema, he picked out the bottom corner before pointing to Zidane as he celebrated scoring his first league goal since September.Benzema, who had kept Real afloat with his 16-goal contribution across all competitions during the turbulent reign of Solari, remained hungry and came closest to notching after Bale picked him out in the middle of the Celta box.The Welsh would-be provider showed quick feet to control Marcelo’s ball in to the D in the 76th minute before slotting it past Ruben Blanco to double Real’s lead.Marco Asensio and Kroos both attempted to make it 3-0, but their attempts sailed over.
