Before the arrival of a storm in the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, a header of the Canterano Gonzalo García, increasingly a sensation of this Club World Cup, capitalized on Tuesday the thrust of Real Madrid, which with a spectacular second half bent 1-0 to Juventus to stand in the quarterfinals of the competition.
From the white quarry to New York, where Real Madrid will play the rooms against one between Monterrey and Borussia Dortmund. With Kylian Mbappé recovered, but with only half an hour on his legs, Gonzalo once took the opportunity that Xabi Alonso gave him. Powerful and elegant header to break the wall of the Meta Juventino Michele Di Gregorio and third goal in four clubs of the Club World Cup.
In the middle of the alarms for a thunderstorm that was approaching the Hard Rock Stadium, Real Madrid solved his eighth appointment to the rhythm of Gonzalo, whose candidacy to stay white in the next season is increasingly strong. Everything was good news for Xabi Alonso, including the return of the Frenchman Kylian Mbappé after missing the first three games.
Of scare to goal
With Gular already settled in the eleven and a defensive line of three with Tchouameni in the center and Huijsen and Rudiger with greater freedom to participate in the construction, Madrid needed a few minutes to feel comfortable in the Hard Rock Stadium, but went from less to more.
He was scared at seven minutes when a great play by Kenan Yildiz in the center of the field liberated Kolo Muani. The Frenchman, only before Courtois in a hand in hand, tried with a petroleum jelly that ended up high. It was a danger to whites, but despite that Xabi Alonso's men gave the feeling of being able to impose their rhythm on the clash.
With little rhythm, Madrid's opportunities arrived based on individual talent. Like Gular's, with three -quarter online class plays, and like Valverde's, which placed a satin center for Bellingham that did not end in goal only thanks to a great stop of Di Gregorio.
With Gonzalo in front
And the spark that lacked in the first half came in the resumption. Madrid returned from changing rooms with another thrust. He had already done it at his premiere in the tournament, in this same field against Al Hilal, and he did it again on Tuesday.
Bellingham told Di Gregorio in 52, Vinicius shook the defense for his band and Huijsen brushed a goal from outside the area with a shot that Di Gregorio managed to send to corner.
The opportunities were added and in 54 Madrid broke equality. Alexander-Arnold, with duties to do at the defensive level, but with great technical quality, hung a center that Gonzalo did not miss.
He hit with power and elegance, unstoppable for Di Gregorio. He celebrated it with passion, grabbing the shield and approaching the corner flag, where thousands of Madrid players celebrated 1-0.
After the advantage, Madrid felt more and more comfortable in the field and continued playing pleasure. The change of rhythm of Vinicius led to the limit to Juventus and the Brazilian originated the play that could end the second goal. Valverde tried with a spectacular Chilean that Di Gregorio managed to clear.
The Italian goalkeeper ended up being the protagonist in the complicated afternoon of Juventus and also closed his goal before a Gular left -handed volley twenty minutes from the end.
Xabi Alonso was satisfied and shortly before he had given way to Mbappé for Gonzalo. The French debuted in the tournament after missing the first three games for acute gastroenteritis. He needs time to recover his best version, but the public celebrated his return with an ovation.
Courtois, attentive at the few moments when his club needed him, had a second half without trouble and Madrid shielded his 1-0 to set up to New Jersey, where whites will end his tournament, either in the quarterfinals, semifinal, or with the final that Xabi Alonso has marked on the calendar since his arrival in Florida.
