Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane defended his changes during their draw with Champions League opponents Borussia Dortmund.

On Tuesday night, Real Madrid went 2-0 up against Paris Saint-Germain before conceding two goals to draw 2-2, with many pointing to the substitution of Fede Valverde as a turning point in the game.

"I don't think it's just a Fede subject," Zidane intimated in relation to Valverde's presence on the pitch.

"We know what he can do, but he's just one player.

"Defending is not just a matter for one player but for everyone. [Tuesday night] was a fluke."
