Script:

SOUNDBITE (Spanish), Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid coach (on Cristiano):

"Yes, yes, Cristiano is very well. He was training individually yesterday. He is completely recovered. He´s on his highest form, as usual. Iker (Casillas) is also playing tomorrow."

SOUNDBITE (Spanish), Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid coach (on Fabio Coentrao being selected and ready to play for Portugal):

"I don't think he´s going to be ready for his national team. He is summoned, so he has to go but so far his condition is not good enough to play a match, because he still hasn´t trained with the group and hasn´t trained with the ball. We have given all our medical reports to the national team and now it´s on them to make a decision about him."

SOUNDBITE (Spanish), Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid coach (on Athletic Bilbao):

"Athletic as always been a fighting team. They have a lot of personality and a lot of quality. It´s not being an easy season for them because they have had to prepare the preliminary of the cup against Naples, which they won, but after that they have had a leave. We have to watch out because, as I said they have quality, personality, and I think this might be the perfect match for them to react."
