Real Madrid star striker Cristiano Ronaldo will travel with the team for the first leg of the Champions League semi-final clash against Manchester City after recovering from thigh injury.

Ronaldo missed La Liga clash against Rayo Vallecano after failing to recover fully from a thigh strain sustained during their 3-2 win over Villarreal on Wednesday.

Besides Vallecano, Ronaldo had played every league match this season and scored 47 goals in 44 matches.

Confirming the news, coach Zinedine Zidane said Ronaldo is going well, adding that he would travel with the team for Manchester City clash, the Mirror reported.

However, forward Karim Benzema is in doubt to play in the Champions League semi-finals after being taken off before the half-time against Vallecano.

Madrid will play against City at Etihad Stadium on Wednesday.
