Trent Alexander-Arnold will undergo a scan on the hamstring injury that he sustained in the first few minutes of Real Madrid's Champions League clash with Marseille.

[Eduardo] Camavinga and Jude [Bellingham] are back and will be able to play on Saturday."

Liverpool fans will be keeping a close eye on Alexander-Arnold's progress with his recovery ahead of their upcoming clash with the 15-time European champions in six weeks' time.

More immediately, Real are facing a potential dilemma if Alexander-Arnold isn't back in time for their next Champions League fixture away to Kazakhstani side Kairat.

This would leave Alonso needing to employ his creative thinking to find a way of stopping Liverpool exploiting that side of the defence.

Will Real Madrid win the Champions League?

"A lot happened," Alonso reflected.

"It was a typical Champions League home game where anything can happen.

It's an important victory to get this first phase of the Champions League off to a good start."
