No respite for Luca Zidane, who discovers the hellish pace of international players. Three days after honoring his first selection with Algeria, against Uganda in qualifying for the 2026 World Cup, the 27-year-old goalkeeper was already on deck with his club Grenada on Friday evening.
At the opening of the 10th day of LaLiga2, the Andalusian team traveled to Andorra and brought back the point of the draw, the neo-Fennec keeping its clean sheet by notably signing an exceptional save on a strike from Garcia Jastin (0-0). A top performance.
“I'm never satisfied with a draw. I'm here to win. Once the match is over, we analyze it. And the analysis of this match is that it’s a good point“, was satisfied at a press conference the son of Zinedine Zidane, who obtained the best score for his team on the specialized site
Sofascore.
Luca Zidane shines with Granada
In the standings, this second consecutive draw does not do the business of Granada, which flirts with the red zone in a provisional 18th place with only one point ahead of the first relegation. But Luca Zidane confirms his last three good performances, against Huesca, Real Sociedad B and with the Greens.
He will still need to gain in consistency to convince observers, particularly in Algeria where his case continues to be debated. But if he stays at this level, a starting place in the selection could open his arms to him at the CAN and the World Cup. His competitor Alexis Guendouz has something to worry about.
