Should we claim victory in Madrid, then a Round One final against the winners of Real Madrid and Sturm Graz awaits on Sunday.

Ahead of what promises to be an important week, Gareth Taylor put his players through some final preparations before we set off for the Spanish capital.

Once that was done, it was a quick shower and straight to the airport for the players and the staff.
