Video: Real Madrid switch to American football ahead of the Manchester United game

Ahead of the pre-season game against Manchester United, Real Madrid decided to play some American football during their training session at Eastern Michigan University.

Xabi Alonso predictably assumed the duties of a quarter-back as he threw some quality touchdown passes, while Sergio Ramos went past a couple of markers score a touchdown.

Real Madrid stars definitely looked to have enjoyed this change from the routine training drills.
