Today, Zinedine Zidane's interview with Lionel Messi has been the most viral news of the moment, since it is not common for both to be face to face, and it was achieved thanks to Adidas. One of the most viral phrases was one from Zidane, when he explained to Messi an anecdote about Real Madrid.

“When you put on the 10 it is more pressure, but for those who know nothing happens. For those who don't know, if you give them a 10 it's more pressure. When I arrived in Madrid, Figo had number 10. I liked the number 5, but in the end what you did on the field matters," Zinedine Zidane began about why he ended up accepting the number 5 jacket and did not ask for the 10 at Real Madrid.

“Seeing a midfielder with the number 5 is also kind of strange. Florentino (Pérez) doesn't like to see players with 30, 35... he likes it the old way, from 1 to 11 and that's it. In the end, number 5 is strong for me now because it is my history with Madrid. The 10 is good but the 5 too. I don't remember much about Juve's number 21,” added Zidane.

Finally Zinedine Zidane explained that: “What the 10 has to have is a bit of magic, like you (referring to Messi). Because he is the leader of the team, he has to create. What you have, the 10 has to do with something that the others don't. For me that is the difference that you have with others. Let the players see what they have to do before receiving the ball.”

Lionel Messi and his words for Zizou:

“For me Zidane is one of the greatest in history. I always admired him and I also suffered when he was at Madrid because I was from Barcelona. I remember the time of the Galacticos, of the European Cup, who had a great team, but he was always a different player, he had art, magic, everything. It's not because he is here but for me he is one of the greatest in history. I have many memories of him,” mentioned Lionel Messi.
