Cristiano
Ronaldo was back in action as Real Madrid trained ahead of their clash with
Celta Vigo on Friday morning.
The club's
all-time record goalscorer sat out Wednesday's defeat to Sevilla after being
forced off at half-time during Sunday's Clasico draw with Barcelona.
The forward
sprained his ankle while scoring his side's first equaliser leading to fears
over his fitness for the Champions League final showdown with Liverpool on May
26.
But those
fears have been allayed after Ronaldo took part in his team's session at their
Valdebebas Sport Complex on a sunny morning in Madrid.
The
33-year-old only got involved in the more relaxed portion of the session before
working on his recovery in the gym for the second half.
Zinedine
Zidane has insisted his star man will be fully fit by the time the Kiev clash
with Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool comes around.
"They are
all going to arrive at the Champions League final," he said following
Wednesday's La Liga loss at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan
"The worst
is Cristiano, because it's just happened, but he's fine. It's incredible that
he's already walking after 48 hours.
"That shows
his ambition, his desire to want to play. It would be perfect if he was able to
play against Villarreal.
"It's a
sprain, but there's not damage to the fibula. The ankle is stable. Everyone
will be available for the final, I'm telling you, 150 per cent. Everyone will
be back, Cristiano, Isco and Carvajal."
