Real Madrid sent a powerful message ahead of the upcoming La Liga season, delivering a commanding 4–0 victory over Austrian side WSG Tirol in their only public-friendly fixture of the summer. The match, played at the Tivoli Stadion Tirol in Innsbruck, showcased the attacking brilliance of Kylian Mbappé and the creative mastery of Arda Güler, leaving fans excited for what’s to come in the 2025/26 campaign.

First-Half Dominance

Real Madrid wasted no time asserting their superiority. In the 10th minute, Éder Militão rose highest to head home from a precise Brahim Díaz cross, opening the scoring. Just three minutes later, Mbappé doubled the lead, calmly slotting in after a clever assist from Arda Güler.

The early goals set the tone for the rest of the match, with Madrid controlling possession, pressing high, and limiting WSG Tirol to very few attacking opportunities.

Mbappé’s Brilliance

The second half saw Mbappé extend the lead in the 59th minute, finishing clinically after being set up by Aurélien Tchouaméni. His movement, pace, and lethal finishing once again proved why he is one of the most feared forwards in world football.

Sealing the Win

Madrid’s dominance was capped in the 81st minute when Rodrygo calmly converted after being played in by Mbappé, completing the 4–0 rout. WSG Tirol, despite a spirited effort, struggled to break through Real Madrid’s organized defense.

Standout Performers

Kylian Mbappé – Two goals and one assist in a performance full of pace, skill, and composure.

Arda Güler – Pulled the strings in midfield, providing creativity and vision.

Éder Militão – Solid defensively and dangerous in attack, opening the scoring with a powerful header.


Tactical Takeaways

Manager Xabi Alonso used the fixture to test tactical setups ahead of the competitive season.
