Zidane: "We know all about Messi but we have our own weapons, too"

Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane urged his team to enjoy Wednesday's Clasico against Barcelona at Camp Nou and assured that he has the firepower to counter the threat of Lionel Messi. 

Messi has been in good form this season, scoring the winning goal against Atletico Madrid and a hat-trick against Mallorca in his last three league games. 

"We will enjoy the Clasico whatever happens because at the end of the day is's 11 vs. 11, plus the changes, but we know what we're up against: a really good team who have shown (how good) for a long time," Zidane said in a press conference on Tuesday. 

"We know they have Messi, but we also have our weapons and what I want is to play a good game."  

The two sides go into the game level at the top of the table, with Barcelona top courtesy of their superior goal difference. 

Both Barca and Madrid were held to draws at the weekend. Ernesto Valverde's men drew 2-2 at Real Sociedad, while Zidane's side were held 1-1 by Valencia.
