Real Madrid are back at work and completed their first training session of 2018 after the New Year break, as they get ready for their trip on Thursday to Soria, where they face Numancia in the last 16 of the Copa del Rey.
Moha trains, Benzema absent
Zinedine Zidane's players were out at Real Madrid's training ground at Valdebebas, and according to the club, the coach once again had Juvenil A goalkeeper Moha training with the senior players. The only absence was Karim Benzema, who came back from holiday with a hamstring niggle and continues his recovery process.
Zidane set up a training circuit which combined a work out with ball work, before focusing on possession with the ball and pressing without. There was also time for some mini-games in reduced spaces to improve vision, reflexes, passing, movement and general football skills.
