Zinedine Zidane pleaded with Cristiano Ronaldo to trust in him to help prolong his career.

Ronaldo had wanted to play in every match.

Last season, Ronaldo sat for most of Real Madrid's Copa del Rey matches and also La Liga matches when there was an important Champions League match coming up.

"If you listen to what I tell you and have belief in what I say, if you accept resting every so often, sitting out the odd game - if you don't mind doing that and believe me, you will prolong your career by a few years," Zidane told Ronaldo.
