Summary

Zinedine Zidane looking like a veteran at Madrid's helm

Only 17 months into his first head-coaching job, Zinedine Zidane is one game away from winning his second Champions League title with Real Madrid.

The 44-year-old Zidane also helped Madrid win the Champions League as a player in 2002, scoring an amazing volley in the final against Bayer Leverkusen in Glasgow, Scotland.

One of Madrid's greatest players, Zidane also has a close connection with Juventus, his team's opponent in Saturday's final in Cardiff.

Zidane spent five seasons in total with Juventus, winning two Serie A titles before moving to Madrid.

On Saturday, Zidane will be trying to become the first coach to win consecutive Champions League titles.
