Zinédine Zidane and Luis Enrique, currently on opposing sides as assistant coach of Real Madrid and head coach of Celta Vigo, respectively, have a history that dates back to 2003 when they were players. In a heated Clasico between FC Barcelona and Real Madrid, a scuffle erupted between Zidane and Luis Enrique.
The incident started with Zidane delivering a blow to the face of Carles Puyol with his arm. This led to Luis Enrique confronting Zidane, who responded by pushing him away and even giving him a little slap. The altercation escalated into a fight involving other players, with Raul notably involved. Eventually, the situation was brought under control.
As the two men find themselves in opposing roles on the sidelines in the current La Liga match between Real Madrid and Celta Vigo, it remains to be seen whether any lingering animosity from their playing days will resurface.
