Former Liverpool goalkeeper Jerzy Dudek made his debut and Brazilian defender Pepe, German international defender Christoph Metzelder and former Barcelona playmaker Javier Saviola also donned Real colours for the first time.

Schuster, a former Real star brought in to replace Fabio Capello, sacked despite a league title win, gave Spanish keeper Iker Casillas and Dutch forward Ruud Van Nistelrooy a break, allowing Dudek and Soldado, who spent last season on loan at Osasuna, a chance to stake a claim to a place.

Raul netted on 18 minutes following a corner and Soldado buried a penalty 15 minutes from time at the Spaniards' Austrian camp of Irdning before a 3,000 crowd.
