Real fell to Eibar 1-2 at Zubieta in their penultimate friendly of the preseason and in the first of the two matches they will face today.
Eibar opened the scoring just after the restart of the second half with a superb free-kick from Arbilla. A few minutes later, it was Bautista, with a long-range shot, who scored the second for the Armeros. The txuri urdin reduced the deficit with a shot by Cho after a fine individual move by Navarro.
