Real Madrid wins first game of Zinedine Zidane's second spell


(CNN) Zinedine Zidane began his second spell in charge of Real Madrid with victory after Isco and Gareth Bale scored in a 2-0 win against Celta Vigo Saturday. Frenchman Zidane was brought back to the Spanish giant after previous coach Santiago Solari was sacked following a string of poor results. The 46-year-old Zidane, who oversaw three consecutive Champions League titles with Real, picked out-of-favor Isco for his first start since October and was rewarded when the Spaniard scored in the 62nd minute. Welshman Bale, who has also been under pressure at Real in recent weeks, hit the cross bar with a scissor kick but fired home a low shot from Marcelo's cross after 77 minutes to restore some pride at the Santagio Bernabeu. "The sensations are good," Zidane was quoted as saying by London's Evening Standard.
