Mariano returns to the group

Zidane has not given his footballers a day off this week. Real Madrid, in this way, has completed 'the great starting gun': he returned from vacation on Monday and has not stopped yet. And it is not because relaxed sessions have been done. Absolutely. Proof of this is the huge physical load that Zinedine has spoken to his players today. Everything, just 14 days before the league debut at the Reale Arena against Real Sociedad (9:00 p.m., Movistar Partidazo).

The positive note was put by Mariano, which begins to caress normality and this morning, for the first time since Monday, he returned to exercise with the group. He did only the first part of the training, the physics, but it is a start. Also reappeared Courtois, back in Valdebebas after being cited by Belgium, with which he has not played. Asensio he continues his recovery with strength in the gym.

The session began with a series of stretches before carrying out aerobic and anaerobic exercises with and without the ball. The footballers then completed a very hard physical instruction focused on endurance. Finally, they disputed several full-field games and in reduced dimensions. All internationals: Lunin (Ukraine), Carvajal (Spain), Ramos (Spain), Varane (France), Mendy (France), Reguilón (Spain), Kroos (Germany), Bale (Wales), Hazard (Belgium) and Jovic (Serbia), will be back on Wednesday.
