Having him in a crazy mood Vinicius and despite the fact that many football players were absent with injury problems, Real Madrid “pressed” Al Ahli (1-4) and qualified for the final of the Club World Cup, where they will face Al Hilal.
The Egyptians entered the game very strongly and missed two important opportunities to open the scoring, in the 19th minute with Sherif and in the 27th minute with Abdelmonem, who from an advantageous position failed to beat Lounin. A minute later, it was Vinicius who threatened, the ball going just wide of the typical home team’s post.
What the Brazilian failed to achieve in the 28th minute, he achieved in the 42nd. First, he took advantage of successive mistakes by the opposition defense and then he stepped into the area and opened the scoring with a nice bite of the ball. Yes, that was it His 50th goal with the jersey of Real.
In the 46th minute, it was Valverde’s turn to find the net, with the Uruguayan midfielder taking the rebound and making it 2-0 from close range.
The Egyptian side pressed for the goal to get them back into the game, which they did in the 65th minute, with Maloul on target from the penalty spot to make it 2-1.
Al Ahly were looking for an equaliser, with Real trying to strike on the counter to seal the game. In the 87th minute, Lukas Modric had the chance to seal the qualification of the “Merechnes”, but he missed from the… white bullet.
What the Croat did not achieve, they did Rodrigo and Aribas some minutes later. In the 90’+2′, the Brazilian took advantage of Thembayos’ assist and with a nice bite of the ball made it 3-1, with the Spanish striker with a wonderful effort in the 90’+8′ putting the icing on the cake and sending the ” queen’ in claiming the eighth Club World Cup in its history.
