Bono to the rescue, as Alonso denied victory in the Club World Cup

Real Madrid was a 1-1 tie for Hilal, as Xabi Alonso’s first game in charge saw them produce a bewildering performance in his World Club Cup workshop.

While deprived of Kylian Mbapping’s services ahead of an illness, Alonso appointed new signings Trent Alexander-Arnold and Dean Hujsen in his defense, although he was the MBAPPE man who gave leadership in Madrid.

Gonzalo Garcia became in the 34th minute, despite the fact that Madrid was at the foot of the rear for much of the first half, but the penalty of Ruben Neves deserved the questions six minutes later.

A late twist appeared to hand over the points to Madrid, as they were granted a dubious penalty in the 90th minute after a revision of Var Pitchside. However, Fede Valverde was denied by the goalkeeper of Hilal Bono, whose comfortable savings assured that the expenses were shared in the clash of the H.

Real Madrid to Al Hilal

In Hilal he started much brighter on the two parts, with the Thibaut Courtois test by Sergej Milinkovic-Savic with an ambitious effort to the cross of Marcos Leonardo, somehow, of the timely range with a strike for the first time of Nasser in the Dawsari.

Renan Lodi seemed to have given Hilal the leadership in the 19th minute, but was properly marked out of play after failing his time on the left.

Throughout its early superiority, Hilal fell behind shortly after the first refrigeration getaway, Garcia scored only his second goal for Los Blancos, while finding the net despite hitting the ball against his own leg of the cross perfectly placed in Rodrygo at the end of a rapid Madrid meter.

However, Hilal responded well and was rewarded when Neves was home from 12 meters, the referee Facundo Tello has not shown any hesitation by pointing to the place in response to Leonardo who was transported by Raul Asencio.

Asencio was removed after half a half and replaced by Arda Guler, who was agonizing near to an immediate impact as his effort near the Vinicius Left Cross struck the crossbar.

Hilal failed to clear himself, but Madrid was again frustrated when Vinicius returned to hand the ball to the box for Garcia, only for the 21-year-old to see his header who remained due to an excellent savings of Bono.

Leonardo missed a couple of presentedable possibilities in a second half that lacked the entertainment factor of the first, and seemed that Hilal lived to achieve his prolificity after Tello pointed in the second time.

Tello was sent to the monitor after a fairly innocied look between Mohammed Al-Qahtani and Fran Garcia, and considered that Al-Qahtani had been deceived in Madrid full of catching him on his face with a flailing arm, although the Hilal wing was completely focused on the ball.

But Valverde could not take advantage of the gift that was given by his side, the Uruguayan seeing his unconvincing penalty saved when Bono went down to his right to preserve a point for Hilal.
