Zidane’s side drew 0-0 against Real Sociedad in their opening fixture, before beating Real Betis and Real Valladolid and winning 2-0 on the road at Levante earlier today.
Goals from Vinicius Junior and Karim Benzema sealed the win for Zidane, and they head into the international break in good shape.
“The result against Levante does not leave me with a bad feeling,” he told a post match interview with Marca.
“We know we can improve and concede less chances and goals. But I am positive about the situation as it’s another three points and a clean sheet.
“We have three wins and a draw, what more can I ask for?”
