It took barely any time for Madrid to show they meant business. Eder Militão opened the scoring with a looping header that looked almost too easy. Minutes later, Kylian Mbappé making it clear he’s not here for slow starts slotted in the second with a quick, instinctive strike. By halftime, it was 2-0, and Los Blancos were already playing like a side with bigger fish to fry.

Mbappé didn’t ease off after the break. He scored again with the kind of acceleration that makes defenders panic, then later teamed up with Rodrygo for the best goal of the day a slick, one-touch move finished with style. Even in a friendly, those moments remind you why Madrid paid big for this kind of firepower.

Álvaro Carreras and Trent Alexander-Arnold both got minutes, and both looked like they’d been wearing the shirt for years. Carreras balanced defensive duties with smart forward runs, while Alexander-Arnold pinged passes from the right that opened up play in ways only he can. They didn’t score, but their impact was obvious.

Sure, it’s pre-season, and Tirol isn’t exactly La Liga competition, but a 4-0 win with sharp finishing, fluid movement, and visible chemistry is nothing to dismiss. With the league opener against Osasuna just days away, Madrid’s mix of established stars and new signings already looks dangerous and ready to chase trophies.
