Real is ready!
A few days before the reunion with PSG on Wednesday, during the round of 16 second leg of the Champions League, Carlo Ancelotti's players are in good shape.
They had a full match on Saturday against Real Sociedad on the 27th day of La Liga.
A show of force, a walk in the park concluded with the final score of 4 goals to 1. The people of Madrid were however behind in the score - against the course of the game, a single shot on target... the penalty - before starting their attacking festival .
A festival triggered by Eduardo Camavinga.
The French midfielder knew he was being watched, scrutinized and expected.
Probably even more than usual.
Because after the absences of Casemiro and Ferland Mendy, both suspended, Madrid could also be deprived of the essential Toni Kroos – tendon – for the return match of the Champions League against Paris.
An absence that could allow the former Rennais to appear on the score sheet on Wednesday.

But insensitive to the pressure despite his young age (19 years old), number 25 of the "White House" responded present and seized his chance perfectly.
Untenable, omnipresent, he allowed his team to return to equality at the end of the first period with a sublime shot from the left.
Unstoppable.
This goal – the second in La Liga for the tricolor midfielder – could therefore allow him to score points with his coach in the event of the absence of the manager Kroos against Paris.
Little used this season by the Italian Maestro, the French international has in any case shown the extent of his talent.
And it is huge.
Paris, which had wanted to attract him, will probably not say the opposite.
Just like Madrid supporters, of whom Camavinga is one of the darlings, who regularly demand his presence on the lawn.
But Madrid are not lacking in talent.
Luka Modric, author of a little gem, is a player apart.
And what about Karim Benzema.
Decreased in the first leg at the Parc des Princes, the player with the bandaged right hand had a full match against the Basque club, multiplying the chances, illuminating the game, distributing caviars.
Unfortunately, he was denied two goals for very borderline offsides before finding the net on a penalty.
His 20th La Liga goal this season.

PSG is warned.
Beaten 1-0 on the way to the Parc des Princes, Real Madrid is determined to overcome its handicap to continue its European path.
