MADRID: Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane said Liverpool will be physically demanding opponents after the two sides were drawn together in the Champions League quarter-finals, but the glamour tie will not distract them from their La Liga title bid.
"We know Liverpool: they'll demand a lot from us physically, but this is for us to think about after the international break," Zidane told a news conference. "Every year the final stretch of the season is do or die. I'm not focusing on the schedule, rather the day-to-day. That's what really gets us going. We're alive, we're working hard and that's inspiration enough for us."The meetings with Liverpool sandwich a Clasico tie against arch-rivals Barcelona, which could have a pivotal say in the title race.
