Mild physical and ball work for Real Madrid on their fourth day in the Algarve. The session ended with a practice game with the coaching staff and the players’ families.

Jordi García and Valter Di Salvo devised some specific physical exercises for the players to tackle before the practice game. The men trained in the gym after jogging around the pitch at Vale do Lobo. This was followed by some ball exercises.
The squad and their families will have a barbecue party tonight as a farewell to their stay in Portugal. Their last training session in the Algarve will be held tomorrow morning. They will then return to Madrid to rest until Monday, when the pre-season work will intensify once they reach Irdning.
