Champions League and La Liga records tumble - Zidane's first 100 Madrid matches in Opta numbers

Real Madrid's trip to face Getafe in La Liga on Saturday will mark Zinedine Zidane's 100th match in charge of the club in all competitions, a tenure that has already surpassed the success of his playing career at Santiago Bernabeu.

Formerly Carlo Ancelotti's assistant, Zidane was promoted from his role managing the Castilla side to replace the sacked Rafael Benitez in January 2016.

He proved that was no fluke last term, Madrid winning La Liga and becoming the first team to retain the European Cup in its present format. 

Ahead of the team's trip to Coliseum Alfonso Perez, and with the help of Opta, we bring you the best numbers from Zidane's bountiful reign at Los Blancos. 

4 - Zidane has won all four of the UEFA Super Cups he has played or coached in (1996 with Juventus, 2002, 2016 and 2017 at Real Madrid). 

73 - Under Zidane, Madrid have achieved the longest scoring run in European football - 73 games.
