In Real Madrid's 3-0 triumph over Schalke 04, goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois and defender Dean Huijsen provided key contributions. Huijsen, who grew up admiring Real Madrid legend Sergio Ramos, scored the second goal of the match by heading in a cross from Arda Guler. Reflecting on the significance of wearing the iconic number 4 shirt, Huijsen expressed his dream of donning it, saying, "It's something I've always dreamed of; my idol was Ramos and for me it's a dream to be able to wear it."
Goalkeeper Courtois, who had missed Belgium's final World Cup match due to a physical issue, returned to action and confirmed he was in top form. He attributed his return to rigorous gym work during his holidays. Both Huijsen and Courtois praised the team's performance, highlighting their strong defense and readiness for the upcoming season under manager Jose Mourinho.
