Zidane out of action


Real Madrid said their French play-maker Zinedine Zidane will be out for at least three weeks after dislocating his right shoulder in their 3-0 Champions League defeat to Bayer Leverkusen in Germany.

World Player of the Year Zidane injured his shoulder in a collision with Leverkusen's Brazilian defender Roque Junior.

Madrid's suspect backline allowed Leverkusen to avenge their 2002 final defeat with goals from Polish international Jacek Krzynowek, Brazilian Franca and Bulgarian striker Dimitar Berbatov.
