Real Madrid coach Ancelotti ponders Modric Copa final call

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti is weighing up whether to risk Luka Modric tonight against Osasuna.

Modric has recovered from a hamstring injury for the Copa del Rey final.

Ancelotti said: "It's a doubt we have.

"Yesterday he trained very well, without any problems. He'll train again today and we'll speak to him and decide whether to put him in from the start. He felt very good yesterday and we'll talk about it again after training.

"If he doesn't feel comfortable we won't take any risks. If he feels comfortable and is well, he'll play."
