Barcelona's Andoni Zubizarreta: 'Cristian Tello better than Cristiano Ronaldo'

Barcelona director of football Andoni Zubizarreta has said that his team's forward Cristian Tello is a better player than Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo.

The 52-year-old made the comments following Barca's 3-1 home win against AC Milan in the Champions League Group H on Wednesday, during which Lionel Messi scored twice.

"In this game, we saw Messi's character, he is working so good and knows that he has our confidence," he told Spanish TV station Canal +.

"Messi is the best of the world but, for me, Tello is even better than Cristiano, any FC Barcelona player is better for me."

Barcelona secured their place in the last 16 of the competition with the win at Camp Nou.
