Led by team captain, Cristiano Ronaldo, the players went through their training with Coach Fernando Santos and his technical team.

The semi-final pits Ronaldo against his Real Madrid team mate, Gareth Bale who has been instrumental for Wales.

He insists there is enough talent in the team for them not to be considered a one-man side.

The Juventus midfielder sustained an adductor muscle injury in the quarter-final victory over Italy.
