This Saturday evening, the Club World Cup continued with the quarter -final between Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund. After PSG's victory over Bayern Munich, you had to know who was going to join the Parisians in the semi-finals. For the occasion, Xabi Alonso decided to align his typical team of the moment with an eleven that is gradually taking shape. First strong choice: Kylian Mbappé was still on the bench. On the front of the attack, it is the young goalscorer Gonzalo Garcia, in great shape, who was therefore associated with Vinicius Jr.
For the rest, classic with a hybrid defense with three with Rudiger, Huijsen and Tchouameni between the two. Trent Alexander-Arnold and Garcia occupied piston roles with Guller and Bellingham to support Valverde in the middle. And very quickly, this Madrid team rolled on Dortmund. In full confidence, the formation of Xabi Alonso found the fault after 10 minutes of play. And it was the inevitable Gonzalo Garcia who opened the score. The Spanish striker was at the reception of a Guller center and therefore scored his 4th goal of the competition (1-0, 10th).
Mbappé slaps a crazy goal
In the process, on a new collective action in high class, Real Madrid was breaking. This time, it is another Garcia, Fran Garcia, who went there with his goal. Originally, the Bellingham – Trent duo. Liverpool's former right side delivered a tense center and Fran Garcia passed in front of Ryelson to score the second goal of his family. A goal that definitively sheltered his team so much Dortmund will never have managed to disrupt the Madrid defense.
It was not until additional time to see Dortmund hoping for a little in a crazy end of the match. After a big Rudiger recovery error, it was Beier who placed a razing shot that courteous could only look. But don't panic in Madrid since Mbappé scored a sensational goal in the process. On a GULER service, he slammed a sublime chisel to seal the victory of his family and launch his competition (3-1, 90th+5). But just after, at the last second, Huijsen was excluded for a fault on Guirassy. The Guinean transformed his penalty, without consequences on the result (3-2, the finance score. Real Madrid qualifies for the semi-finals and will therefore face PSG in the next round without Huijsen.
