Real put out to a strong side for coach Fabio Capello's first match in charge with Jonathan Woodgate, Ivan Helguera, Antonio Cassano and Guti all playing. The sides were separated by Julio Baptista's 75th minute penalty after Luc Nalis handled in the area. Argyle created few chances, but their commitment stopped Madrid's fluency. Javier Portillo missed two good chances in the first half for Madrid, while substitute Soldado went close several times late on.

SO WHAT!!

Hes been desperately unlucky with injuries and would be a great asset for England.
