Friday marked Real Madrid’s fourth training session of the week as Zinedine Zidane’s men continue their vigorous physical drills while a match against Eibar looms at Estadio Alfredo di Stefano on Sunday. One session, tomorrow, still remains before the game.

Today’s session — one which Real Madrid President Florentino Perez, along with Director General Jose Angel Sanchez attended to wish the players good luck — was pretty routine. The training began with ball-work, and transitioned to possession and shooting drills. As usual, the session ended with a scrimmage on reduced-sized pitches.

Injury updates: Mariano Diaz trained alone outdoors, while Luka Jovic and Nacho continued their recovery programs indoors.
