Real Madrid defeated Manchester City 4-1 in Australia today. It means that they finished top of the table of the International Champions Cup, which also included Italian side Roma.
The trophy was lifted by both Alvaro Arbeloa and Cristiano Ronaldo together during the formal presentation.
It was a surprise that there was no sign of Sergio Ramos, the now club captain, following the departure of Iker Casillas.
The Spaniard had been substituted off and had given the armband to Arbeloa.
Ramos would have been glad to lift his first trophy as club captain. It could be assumed that he is preoccupied with other things.
If Ramos does want to leave for Manchester United, as is being widely reported, then it may be possible that he didn’t want to be seen lifting a trophy halfheartedly.
