Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane explained going with Luka Jovic for victory at Real Betis.

Zidane made the surprise decision to start Jovic up front alongside Karim Benzema.

"I was looking to play in the opposition half with a different strategy," the Real Madrid boss explained.

"We can play in lots of different ways and that's one of them, with two strikers.

"We can be happy with the game, with the three points."

On possible transfer activity before the October 5 deadline, Zidane remained coy over Real Madrid's business.

"I'm happy with the squad that I have," he said.

"We are what we are and we're going to try to have a good season."
