Jude Bellingham was humiliated by Real Madrid team-mate Thibaut Courtois with a nutmeg in training ahead of their Champions League clash at Manchester City....Read Full Article >>➤
Twenty-four hours before the huge clash, Carlo Ancelotti’s men stepped onto the Etihad Stadium pitch to fine-tune their tactics.
Despite the importance of the first leg round of 16 play-off tie, it looked like a regular day at the office for Los Blancos.
The players were involved in a fun rondo and during the drill, Courtois nutmegged Bellingham, leaving the rest of the Real squad in stitches.
On Tuesday night however, Courtois faces a daunting 90 minutes against the Premier League champions.
Ancelotti is likely to field a makeshift rearguard in the absence of a regular centre-back and a right-back.
With Antonio Rudiger, Eder Militao, David Alaba, Dani Carvajal, and Lucas Vazquez all injured, Ancelotti might deploy Fede Valverde at right-back, with Aurelien Tchouameni and Raul Asencio as the two centre-backs.
