VIDEO: Madrid stars Morata, Vazquez and Nacho showcase finishing skills by netting from behind the goal

Real Madrid have been getting some shooting practice in ahead of a derby date with Atletico Madrid, with certain members of their star-studded squad taking finishing school to a whole new level.

Alvaro Morata could be given an opportunity to cause mayhem in the final third when Zinedine Zidane’s side welcome their cross-city rivals to Santiago Bernabeu.

Nacho and Lucas Vazquez will also be hoping to get a look-in during a crunch clash in the Spanish capital.

All three men look to be in decent shape, with their eye clearly in as Real go in search of the goals which will keep them at the top of the Liga standings.

Real hold a two-point lead at the summit at present, while also boasting a game in hand on their closest challengers.

They could pull five points clear on Saturday afternoon, with second-placed Barcelona not in action until later in the evening away at Malaga.
