Real Madrid beat Saudi Arabia’s outfit Al-Hilal 5-3 to win the Club World Cup for the fifth time in history.
Vinicius Junior and Federico Valverde scored twice for Carlo Ancelotti’s side, while Karim Benzema was also on the scoresheet for the Champions League holders.
European Champions League winners Madrid were heavy favourites against their counterparts from Asia and duly raced into a 2-0 lead inside 20 minutes with two goals in five minutes from Vinicius and Valverde.
But Al Hilal, the first team from Saudi Arabia to make the final, made the game a contest when pulling a goal back courtesy of Moussa Marega.
