LYON (Reuters) - Zinedine Zidane's remarkable run to three consecutive Champions League finals as Real Madrid coach should be no surprise because the former midfielder "inspires success", says his former France team mate Christian Karembeu.

Karembeu, a double European Cup winning midfielder with Real himself, won the 1998 World Cup and Euro 2000 with France alongside Zidane. The Madrid boss is bidding to become the first coach to win the Champions League three times in a row when his side meet Liverpool on Saturday in Kiev.
