Real Madrid secured a commanding 3-0 victory over Red Bull Salzburg in their final Group H match of the FIFA Club World Cup, setting up a thrilling round of 16 fixture against Juventus.
The Spanish giants were led by standout performances from Vinicius Junior and Federico Valverde, both scoring in the first half. Gonzalo Garcia added a third in the 84th minute to seal the win in Philadelphia.
Madrid’s result, combined with Al Hilal’s 2-0 victory over Pachuca, eliminated Salzburg from the tournament. Meanwhile, Manchester City defeated Juventus 5-2 earlier in the day to finish top of the group and will face Al Hilal in the next round.
Key Match Moments
Despite missing Kylian Mbappe due to illness, Madrid’s depth proved crucial. Jude Bellingham created both first-half goals, while also saving a shot off the line in the 66th minute. Vinicius Junior delivered a standout performance, dribbling past defenders and scoring with precision.
Valverde’s strike just before halftime gave Madrid a comfortable cushion going into the second half. The Austrian side matched Madrid in total shots (12 each), but the Spanish club proved far more clinical.
