Gonzalo Garcia’s Goal Helps Real Madrid Pass Juventus Into Club World Cup Quarter-Finals
Real Madrid have booked their spot in the quarter-finals of the 2025 Club World Cup after a hard-fought 1-0 win over Juventus. The Spanish giants were tipped as favourites heading into the Round of 16 clash but struggled to break down the Italian side in the first half. It was Gonzalo Garcia who made the difference, nodding home a well-placed cross from Trent Alexander-Arnold in the 54th minute to seal the win.
Despite Real’s dominance, Juve’s goalkeeper Michele di Gregorio put in a brilliant performance to keep the scoreline close. Xabi Alonso’s men now advance to the last eight, where they’ll meet either Borussia Dortmund or Monterrey for a place in the semi-finals.
Former footballer Zlatan Ibrahimovic speaks on the World Cup and shares his thoughts on who could possibly win the FIFA World Cup 2026.
He spoke about the players who are performing really well and carrying their teams.
“Harry Kane, he did three things. Two goals and one run he did. We talk about Messi for Argentina, France with Mbappe, but they have other superstars also. Sir Harry Kane is England, and the way he performed today, he needs to continue like that if this England is going to have a chance.”
Morocco coach Mohamed Ouahbi speaks on the Netherlands’ elimination from the World Cup.
The coach explained why the team was eliminated. “Morocco has gained everybody’s respect now,” Ouahbi said, adding: “It’s not because of what we’ve said. We’ve now shown it.
“We completely dominated a Netherlands team. We had 70% possession, more shots and more expected goals. We controlled the match. We wanted to stay calm, play our game and believe that if it went to penalties, we had an exceptional goalkeeper. We didn’t turn the match into a chaotic battle. We controlled it.”
Nigerian footballer and former captain William Troost-Ekong revealed the standout player for him in the South African team during this World Cup.
He shared that Mbekezile Mbokazi really stood out in the World Cup match against Canada.
Despite their loss, he praised the team’s performance. “It speaks volumes that Mbokazi [Mbekezile] was the best player on the South African team. I believe Okon also had considerable possession of the ball.”
