Real Madrid defeated Schalke 04 in a preseason match held in Gelsenkirchen. Kylian Mbappé opened the scoring in the sixth minute after intercepting a backpass from Ron Schallenberg. Dean Huijsen added a header in the 25th minute following a corner, and Carlos Espi scored in the 57th minute. Real Madrid manager José Mourinho utilized the match for rotation, substituting Mbappé at halftime for Antonio Rüdiger. Schalke goalkeeper Loris Karius made several saves, including a notable stop against Vinicius Junior. The match took place during a stadium anniversary celebration, which included a tribute to club icons Rudi Assauer and Josef Schnusenberg. While the center left source framed the result as Mbappé igniting Madrid in their best preseason match, the center right source focused on the clear loss for Schalke during their anniversary event.
