Live Match: Real Madrid vs. Borussia Dortmund | Xabi Alonso Sticks with Same Lineup, Mbappé on the Bench

Real Madrid faces Borussia Dortmund in the quarter-finals of the Club World Cup. The whites are competing for a spot in the semi-finals with the same starting eleven that played in the round of 16. Gonzalo remains the focal point upfront, while Mbappé waits for his moment on the bench. For Dortmund, the notable absence is Jobe Bellingham. The brother of the Madrid player misses the match due to suspension. Xabi Alonso’s team, which has only conceded two goals so far in the competition, comes into this match after defeating Juventus of Turin in the round of 16 with a goal from Gonzalo at the start of the second half. Dortmund, on the other hand, won 2-1 against Monterrey, with a double from Guirassy in the first half hour of play. The winner of this matchup will face PSG in the next round. The Champions League champion defeated Bayern Munich 2-0.
