Madrid's Post-Christmas Training: Festive Return to the Pitch

Madrid's first training after Christmas was marked by a festive atmosphere from fans and players at the Alfredo Di Stefano Stadium.

A large crowd cheered as players entered, with the club anthem playing in a celebratory mood.

The squad and staff signed autographs for fans and gave brief interviews for the club's TV.

Madrid now hosts Real Betis on Sunday in La Liga Week 19 and eyes a Spanish Super Cup semi-final against Atletico Madrid on the eighth. Fans left buzzing afterward.

Punchline 1: If enthusiasm were a transfer, Madrid would have signed a full squad.

Punchline 2: Looks like the trophy cabinet just filed for a season pass to this training.
