#2 Zinedine Zidane reaches a milestone

Zinedine Zidane completed 100 games in charge of Los Blancos

Zizou is rightfully considered as a legend in this part of the world with his achievements as a player and now as a manager, taking Real Madrid to the next level. The Frenchman reached a milestone of managing 100 games for Real Madrid against Getafe in what turned out to be a happy encounter for the manager.

Out of 100, Zidane has won 75, drawn 17 and lost a paltry 8 matches. Though he has won a bucket load of trophies since taking over from Rafa Benitez, his record is the worst in the first 100 games, when compared to Jose Mourinho and Carlo Ancelotti.

Mourinho had won 77 out of 100 whereas the Italian tasted victory 78 times.

Though Zidane's men have also scored fewer than they did under their previous managers and have also conceded more goals, Real Madrid have won as many trophies under Zidane as under Jose Mourinho and Carlo Ancelotti combined (seven).

This is the stat that will matter to the club hierarchy who will hope that Zidane reaches the next milestone of 200 games as successfully as this one.
