Workout at Al-Nassr training ground
On Saturday, FC Barcelona were at yet another venue in Riyadh. This time it was the Al-Nassr training ground, an extremely stylish facility with amazing decor on the walls, but with no time to admire them, the players got stuck into some serious training for the Spanish Super Cup Final against Real Madrid tomorrow.
It's the same place where the likes of Sadio Mané, Cristiano Ronaldo, Brozovic and Laporte train most days of the week, with the yellow and blue of their team and images of its players of past and present all over the place, with explanations of everything including the origin of the team's colours (yellow for the Arabian sand and blue for the sea in the gulf), and the different trophies that the club has won over the years on proud display.
A fitting venue for the occasion, where all of the Barça players who are available for selection tomorrow trained in the Riyadh evening light, the last workout they will have before the showdown with Madrid at 8pm CET tomorrow.
