On Tuesday, all eyes — including those of Real Madrid — were fixed on the Champions League semi-final between Inter Milan and Barcelona at San Siro. Although Madrid had been knocked out in the previous round, the match held enormous significance for Los Blancos ahead of this Sunday’s Clásico.

According to OKDiario, several Real Madrid players gathered in small groups at teammates’ homes to watch the clash together. Even retired legend Toni Kroos, who remains closely tied to the club, joined one of these gatherings to share the moment with his former teammates.

After wrapping up their training session at Valdebebas earlier in the day, many players chose to spend the evening united, watching Inter’s intense extra-time triumph over Barcelona. The emotional and physical toll of that defeat, Madrid believes, could have serious repercussions for the Catalan side just days before the all-important Clásico at Montjuïc.

Inside the Madrid dressing room, the mood is upbeat. “This defeat will leave them reeling,” some players reportedly said — confident that the psychological blow Barça suffered in Milan could play directly into Madrid’s hands. The coaching staff and squad are now even more optimistic and determined, convinced that this is the perfect moment to strike.

With LaLiga on the line and morale soaring at Valdebebas, Real Madrid sees the upcoming Clásico not just as a league fixture, but as a golden opportunity to turn the tide in the title race.
