Of the shouts of support coming from the gathering, it was Álvaro Morata who received the most acclaim. There was also a decent tribute given to manager Diego Simeone, Antoine Griezmann and Diego Godín.

The team had no problems accessing their city centre hotel, and they were observed carefully by a couple of police cars, sat discreetly by their side.

Simeone will take his troops through a training session on Monday afternoon ahead of speaking to the press.
