Led by Brazilian team manager Vanderlei Luxemburgo, the "galaticos" arrived at Beijing Capital International Airport at 4:40 A.M., with all the super stars - David Beckham, Michael Owen, Raul Gonzales, Ronaldo, Zinedine Zidane, and Roberto Carlos.

England captain David Beckham, who was previously rumored not to come after picking up a hamstring injury at the last US friendly, appeared with teammates.

Before that, they will spend a day in Tianjin, a northern municipality 120- kilometers -east of Beijing, and play a training match there.

After the team's 皇冠体育app tour, Real Madrid will play another three matches in Bangkok (Thailand) and Tokyo (Japan).
