  /  autty

Eder Militao was forced off during Real Madrid's match with Athletic Club on Sunday night after being poked in the eye by Kenan Kodro.

The defender tried to continue, but the medical team decided that he had to come off and he was replaced by Nacho Fernandez.

Raphael Varane was left on the bench, with Zinedine Zidane preferring to rest the Frenchman for this encounter.

This was Militao's first start at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu since September 25, with his last two starts coming away at Club Brugge and Alaves.
