Asensio, Bale get praise from Zidane after Real Madrid win
Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is reportedly not considering to let the Colombian leave this summer despite Spanish publication Sport suggests Chelsea would be ready to spend around £78m for him and have already met with his agent to show up their interest.

Back from his post-Euro 2016 holidays, Bale was the only member of the renowned “BBC” forward line who was fit enough to play in Sunday’s (Monday in Manila) game, as Zinedine Zidane’s team travelled to San Sebastian in the midst of an injury crisis, with five regular starters unable to make the squad.
I’m happy with the players I’ve got – these same players won the Champions League. “He started in the best way, scoring early”.
Sociedad’s slack defending left open a hole at the back that Asensio exploited with a run met by Raphael Varane’s long pass. Asensio deftly controlled the lob before chipping goalie Geronimo Rulli, adding another classy goal to his superb strike that helped Madrid beat Sevilla in the season’s curtain raiser. “The important thing is the team”, Zidane said.
When created, the fans’ designs are pitted against each other in a head-to-head style vote and if Real Madrid aren’t really your thing, you can also design a kit for Manchester United, Juventus, AC Milan, Bayern Munich or Flamengo.
“He is working well, he is a quality player; he is good with the ball and able to break through defences and he scored an excellent goal”, said the Real Madrid coach.
Bale rounded Sociedad keeper Geronimo Rulli to score again in the final minute for last season’s runners-up.
“The players are absolutely committed, but it’s clear we have to work hard to improve and correct our errors as soon as possible”.
Atletico Madrid were held to a 1-1 draw by Alaves in extraordinary circumstances at the Vicente Calderon.

Diego Simeone’s side had seen their principal title rivals Real and Barcelona claim maximum points and missed a series of chances before Kevin Gameiro took advantage of a debatable penalty award to put the Rojiblancos ahead in the third minute of second-half stoppage time.
