Optimism with Hazard and Ramos

Just a few hours to return with a victory in the league championship against Eibar, the Madrid squad returned to the Valdebebas facilities to carry out the first training session before facing Valencia (Thursday 18, 22:00, Movistar LaLiga), in what will be their second meeting of the week.

Zidane prepared a smooth session with the injured Jovic, Nacho missing (the two continue with their recovery processes), Lucas Vázquez and Mariano (both exercised separately). Neither was Carvajal (he sprained his ankle in a set in the match against the gunsmith box) nor Gareth Bale, He barely participated with 30 minutes against the Eibarreses: he has a muscular overload, but neither does it seem that he is low for the Valencia match.

Sergio Ramos, retired to prevent greater evils (The captain himself assured at the end of the meeting that they were simple “annoyances, an overload”), he went running with the rest of his companions, for what is surely available for the meeting before the Valencian team. The defender was running with Modric with the rest of his teammates, and will be available for both Thursday and Sunday's match in San Sebastián against Real (a match that will also start at 22:00). Like Eden Hazard, who was returning to the competition after falling injured in the white defeat against Levante last February, which was at a formidable level. Both will be in perfect condition for the next match, unless Zidane decides to save someone with a view to the meeting of San Sebastián. The players who started against Eibar ran first on the pitch and then worked inside the facilities. The rest started with an intense physical session, followed by ball possession exercises, combinations, shots on goal and various games on a small field.

The Whites intend to get the nine points that are at stake this week. After having defeated Eibar in a match in which he had two faces (an overwhelming first half, in which he got his three goals, and another in which he let himself go thinking that the game is resolved and where the gunsmith was superior) , Now they receive Valencia, an opponent who subtracted points in the last league championships. A day later, Barcelona travels to Seville to face Julen Lopetegui's … and Madrid does not want to stop pursuing the League …
