The visitors fielded a team that included former FIFA World Player of the Year, Zinedine Zidane, Raúl, David Beckham and Michael Owen, Ronaldo and Roberto Carlos. Real won 4–1, with the goals coming from Raúl, Ronaldo, Javier Portillo and Owen.
Similarly, the club welcomed English Premier League side Arsenal for a pre-season friendly on 31 July 2006. The visitors, whose line-up featured only a couple of familiar names, won 8–1.
