Real Madrid involved in bus crash
Madrid absorbed a 2-0 Champions League loss to Liverpool at Anfield.
Sources reported that the players were not on the bus at the time of the accident, and that the two drivers were also safe.
The incident was a minor collision involving several vehicles, and only the headlights of Madrid’s coach were broken.
Los Blancos already returned home by plane from Liverpool on Wednesday night.
Warwickshire Police stated: “Our officers responded to reports of a collision involving a car, a lorry, and the coach of a well-known football team on the M40 southbound between junction 16 for Hockley Heath and junction 15 for Warwick.
“Fortunately, nobody was seriously injured. The players from the well-known football team were not on the coach at the time.”
Real Madrid typically uses its own bus during away fixtures to transport the team’s equipment back to Spain’s capital.
Madrid’s struggle continues
Meanwhile, the defending European champions are at risk of an early exit from the Champions League.
Madrid currently sit 24th in the table with six points, occupying the final spot for play-off qualification.
On the other hand, Liverpool are nearing the round of 16 in the competition, maintaining a perfect record so far.
