Rayo Vallecano and Real Sociedad are now in training in China

The two Spanish teams had a run out this evening at the Century Park football pitch in the city of Shanghai. The Madrid team began their session at 20.30, local time and at about 22.00 Real Sociedad had their turn. The heat and humidity played a major part in the training sessions, along with the positive attitudes of the players. The two sides will compete against each other in the LaLiga World match this Wednesday in the city of Nanjing, hoping to live up to the expectation that has been awakened by their trips to the Asian country.

LaLiga is the competition with the most quality and best talent in the world, the best players on the planet play for Spanish teams. Xabi Prieto, captain of the ‘donostiarra’ side, said; “I think this can only be a positive thing, especially considering we have a Chinese sponsor, to come to visit them and for the guys here to learn more about our team and our players, it’s very good.”

On Tuesday morning both Real Sociedad and Rayo Vallecano depart for Nanjing, their second stop on the LFP World Challenge Tour.
