In the US, Real Madrid and Chelsea played a friendly match. The Spanish Royal team’s final friendly before the 2024–2025 season begins is this one.

Real Madrid was desperate for a victory to open the new campaign after suffering two losses to AC Milan and Barcelona. As a result, Ancelotti’s team faced Chelsea with a comparatively strong roster.

Brahim Diaz, Vinicius, and Rodrygo all contribute to Real Madrid’s offensive play’s flexibility. With a help from Brahim Diaz, Lucas Vázquez scored the first goal after 19 minutes of play.

Chelsea attempted to change their formation in an attempt to find an equaliser after giving up two goals. Madueke’s goal in the 39th minute enabled them cut the deficit to 1-2 thanks to the English player’s unwavering efforts.
