RIOT police clashed with supporters on the streets of Madrid ahead of Real's Champions League semi-final with Bayern Munich.
Real Madrid produced an incredible late comeback to beat Bayern at the Bernabeu and set up a date with Borussia Dortmund at Wembley on June 1.
The tie remained on a knife-edge going into the second leg after the two European giants battled out a 2-2 draw at the Allianz last week.
Thousands of German supporters headed to the Spanish capital for today's decider.
And the mood was largely good-natured throughout as they indulged in some of the local drinking establishments.
However, it seemed that at some point things turned sour close to the stadium as the Champions League action approached.

Stephen R Power, who goes by the handle of on X, shared a two-and-a-half minute video clip from near the heart of the mayhem.
And it showed a riot cop take a swing at one supporter as they tried to restore order after some trouble had kicked off.
“People getting silly out here,” says the man on the camera as the establishment he is in pulls down a metal shutter to protect the door and windows.
The camera then pans to fans walking away quickly through turned over chairs and tables before an army of riot police march on the scene.

The man, who claims he is “right outside the stadium” and that “everyone was having a good time”, continues to film as more tooled-up cops arrive.
One is then spotted taking a swing with his baton at a male’s arm who was walking away with several other men.
You then see one carrying what is described as a “huge super-soaker” gun.
The footage continues before you hear a loud bang from outside as our narrator says: “F***ing hell, they are wrecking the gaff!”
You can hear shouts from what appears to be a large group of people further up the street as around eight riot police are racing towards the trouble.
“Was not expecting that at all, madness that,” says the narrator after finally being allowed to leave the shop, whose workers are spotted trying to tidy up the mess left.
