Madrid, Sep 27 (EFE).- Gareth Bale, Real Madrid's wing forward, confirmed that he was feeling better after straining his thigh muscle by successfully completing his second training session in a row after having suffered the injury. All players were available to train, except Xabi Alonso, including Marcelo, who trained with his team mates even though manager Carlo Ancelotti officially announced that he would not be playing.

It was the team's last session before their upcoming derby against Atletico de Madrid, scheduled for Saturday.
