Real Madrid triumphs over Tottenham

Real Madrid triumphed over Tottenham in their fourth preseason match, held at the Pinatar Arena in Murcia. Pau Quesada's side overturned an early goal from the English team with strikes from Schröder (22’) and Linda Caicedo (25’), sealing the third win of the preseason for our team.

Hanson put Tottenham ahead after five minutes with a low shot from inside the area. But Real Madrid managed to recover and turned the score around in just three minutes. In the 22nd minute, Schröder capitalized on an excellent through pass from Linda Caicedo and calmly finished one-on-one against Kop to equalize. Shortly after, Linda herself picked up a loose ball inside the area and completed the comeback with a left-footed strike (25’). Before halftime, the Colombian forward nearly added a third in another one-on-one, but the Dutch goalkeeper denied her.

Madrid holds the lead
After the break, the match entered a phase of probing, with neither team creating clear chances. Our team controlled the game and, with great defensive work, maintained the lead until the final whistle, securing their third preseason victory. Real Madrid has one final friendly left before facing Ajax in the third round of the Women’s Champions League. This will be against Deportivo next Sunday, August 16, at Ciudad Real Madrid (8:00 pm CEST).
