He recalled, “I'm not at all proud of what I did but it's part of it's part of my past."
Zidane also discussed his dinked penalty on the night.
He said, “I had a second or two to think about how to take it: I had in front of me a goalkeeper who knows me really well so I had to think of something.
“In that effort, there was certainly technique, I don't think there was madness.
"You can miss a penalty but in that moment it is what I had to do."
