The players completed their first training session at Real Madrid City in preparation for the clash with Manchester City. Ancelotti's men will host the English side on Wednesday in the second leg of the Champions League playoff tie for a place in the last 16 (9 pm CET).

Those in the starting line-up in Pamplona underwent recovery work inside the facilities. The rest of the squad started in the gym and then trained on the pitch, where they completed ball-retention drills and possession work. The sessions finished with a series of games in reduced spaces and finishing exercises. Rüdiger, Alaba and Lucas Vázquez continued their recovery programmes.
