Carlo Ancelotti: 'We have practised penalties'

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has revealed that his players practised their penalties "for five minutes" ahead of the Copa del Rey final against Barcelona.

The two sides meet at the Mestalla in the final of the competition this evening, with penalties due to take place should the score remain level after 120 minutes of football.

"We practised our penalties for five minutes," he told reporters at a press conference.

Cristiano Ronaldo scored the only goal of the match when the pair met in the 2011 final.

However, the Portuguese international misses out this evening with a hamstring injury.
