Zidane: 'No guard of honour for Barca'

Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane says that his side will not give Barcelona a guard of honour should the Catalan giants win La Liga before their meeting in May.

Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane has ruled out the possibility of Barcelona being given a guard of honour by his side.

The two clubs are scheduled to meet at Camp Nou on May 6, and the possibility remains that Barcelona could have already wrapped up the La Liga title.

However, Zidane says that Real will not give their rivals a guard of honour due to not receiving one after their Club World Cup success earlier this campaign.

At a press conference, the 45-year-old told reporters: "We will not give a guard of honour, this is my decision.

"Barcelona didn't follow the tradition when we won the Club World Cup. This is my decision."

With eight matches remaining, Barcelona hold a nine-point lead at the top of the standings.
