The team was back in training at Real Madrid City as they begin preparations for the Champions League group stage match against Shakhtar Donetsk Wednesday, 9pm CEST. The starters from the LaLiga match against Osasuna trained at a lower intensity.

The squad kicked off with fitness work for half an hour before heading out on to the pitch where they worked on pressing and playing out from the back. Afterwards, they focussed on ball circulation and finished with some high-intensity games on a small pitch. Courtois and Camavinga trained inside.
