Zinedine Zidane hails Cristiano Ronaldo as best in the world

Zinedine Zidane hailed Cristiano Ronaldo as the best player in the world after Real Madrid saw off Wolfsburg in the Champions League.

Ronaldo's hat-trick saw Madrid reach the semi-finals after they suffered a 2-0 defeat in the first leg.

Zidane said: "Cristiano Ronaldo is showing what he is. He is the best player in the world and he did what makes him a special player. 

"But he needs all the team, to do what he does, and what we need to do is talk about what all the players have done together. But not everyone can score three goals, that’s clear."
