Real Madrid in the spotlight at the pre-season match played between Philadelphia Eagles and Pittsburgh Steelers, both teams from the NFL. The Whites attended the Lincoln Financial Field, where they will face off on Saturday (20:00 -14:00 local time-) against Celtic, the team from Glasgow, in the last match of their American tour, and watched the match live. During the break, Arbeloa, who was wearing the local team’s shirt with the name Jackson and the number 10 on his back, Granero, Xabi Alonso, Higuaín and Sergio Ramos kicked the ball around between the posts on the pitch. Higuaín and Ramos both had the courage to shoot, with success, from 40 yards. Subsequently, their teammate Khedira was interviewed by the local media. “I’m very happy to be in this stadium where we played last season. I hope that the match against Celtic on Saturday proves to be a good spectacle”, commented the German midfielder. His comments were broadcast live on the stadium’s big screens.
