City's players were back at the City Football Academy after securing a safe passage to the fifth round of the FA Cup.

There were plenty of smiles back in Manchester following our 2-1 win over Leyton Orient in the early kick-off on Saturday.

The League One side pushed City in a typically tough thriller against lower league opposition.

But it will be a change of style for our next match when we face Champions League holders Real Madrid.

The Spanish side come to the Etihad for our play-off first leg on Tuesday 11 February at 20:00 (UK).

And the players were making sure we are ready for a completely different type of test.
