Star man Karim Benzema was forced off with a knock in the second half at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, but according to reports from Diario AS, the move was a precaution from Ancelotti.

Benzema will now be rested during the break, with Spanish full back Dani Carvajal also back in contention, after testing positive for Covid-19 during their Spanish Supercopa win in Saudi Arabia.

However, Ancelotti will also be keeping a close eye on the incoming South American World Cup qualifiers, with five first teamers away on international duty next month.
