Fierce battle in the Club World Cup, Vinicius made a pass and shot, Real Madrid 3-0 Salzburg Red Bull locked in the top spot

In Group H of the 2025 Club World Cup, La Liga giant Real Madrid defeated Austria's Salzburg Red Bull with an exciting 3-0 victory over Austria's Salzburg Red Bull in the last round of the group stage, and advanced to the quarterfinals. The match was staged at 9 a.m. on June 27, marking Real Madrid's strong strength and dominance in the event, and also secured a valuable spot in the group number one. Next, they will play against Serie A giant Juventus in the 1/8 final. At the beginning of the game, the two teams fought fiercely in the midfield. In the first 15 minutes, both sides were relatively cautious and each tested the opponent's defense. In the 20th minute, Vinicius, with his rapid speed and excellent skills, faced the goalkeeper alone after receiving a precise pass from his teammate on the left side of the penalty area. However, this opportunity was saved by the goalkeeper of Red Bull Salzburg. In the next minute, Red Bull Salzburg also launched a potentially threatening attack. Fran Garcia's cross almost caused a goal, but Real Madrid's defender cleared the ball in time to resolve the crisis.

After all, Real Madrid's patience and strength were rewarded in the 40th minute. With a wonderful quick counterattack unfolding, Bellingham's long pass accurately found Vinicius who was in the forward, who calmly shot on the edge of the penalty area, breaking the deadlock for the team and successfully rewrite the score to 1-0. Immediately afterwards, Real Madrid continued to put pressure on Salzburg in the first half. In the 48th minute (the original manuscript was mistakenly written as the third minute), Vinicius successfully passed back on the right, and Valverde followed up with a powerful shot that came into the net, and the score further expanded to 2-0. At this time, Real Madrid players smiled confidently on their faces during the break. After the second half restart, Red Bull Salzburg tried to strengthen the offense, but Real Madrid's defense was always as solid as a rock. Dajim won one-on-one chances in the 50th and 53rd minutes, but failed to hit the target. Then, in the 54th minute, Valverde's long shot failed to pose a threat. In the 63rd minute, Salzburg's Kylegao also had a chance to shoot, but he also failed to break through Courtois's guard. In the 66th minute, Salzburg's corner kick offensive almost scored, but was cleared by Bellingham on the goal line to avoid conceding the ball.

In order to stabilize the victory, Real Madrid coach Ancelotti made three substitutions in the 67th minute: Rodrigo, Ramon and Modric replaced Vinicius, Rudiger and Guerre respectively, and then Ceballos and Diaz also appeared one after another. The game came to an end, and in the 84th minute, Bellingham once again showed his accurate long pass. Although Salzburg's defender made a mistake in clearing, Gonzalo Garcia seized the opportunity to successfully intercept the ball, scored a goal easily, and locked the score at 3-0.

In the end, Real Madrid accumulated 7 points with two wins and a draw, and advanced to the top in the group with strong success. In another game in the same group, Riyadh Crescent defeated Pachuca 2-0, gaining 5 points, winning second in the group, while Red Bull Salzburg was unfortunately eliminated with 4 points. The 1/8 final showdown between Real Madrid and Juventus will surely become a highlight of this Club World Cup and attract the attention of many fans.
