Aitor Karanka sees upcoming derby match as very important

2013-04-26 1

Madrid, Apr 26 (EFE).- Real Madrid held a training session on Friday to prepare for their derby match the following day against cross-town rival Atletico Madrid. Cristiano Ronaldo jogged for five minutes and then headed to the clubhouse for physical therapy work.

Cristiano has been hampered by sore muscles and it appears that the coaching staff will not call on him to play at the Vicente Calderon against Atletico on Saturday, opting instead to save hime for the second-leg Champions League semifinals against Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday.
