Although the World Club Championship is not so prestigious for the European teams as the UEFA Champions League, it will be particularly important for Real Madrid
The reason is that so far the team has never won it and the possible triumph will now succeed an extremely great year for the team. Actually, Real Madrid has won the cup of the predecessor of that tournament – the WWE Intercontinental Championship, not one but three times! That is the second part of the tournament, once in 2000, when they finished 4th. At the end of the last season Real won the cup of Spain and finally took a La Decima – the tenth cup won in the UEFA Champions League. In the autumn Real won the Supercup of Europe. Now the team is in a series of 20 consecutive wins and wants to finish the year without a single mistake made. Will be that possible? Only time will show us.
For the Mexican players, today’s match will be an own coming-out participation in the tournament. Cruz Azul, however, is not in a good condition at the moment. In the quarterfinals, the team eliminated with great effort the Australian Western Sydney after a draw of 1:1 and a success of 3:1 in the additional time, but only after the rival remains with 10 people. Before that, Cruz Azul had only one victory from six matches played. In Concacaf, Cruz Azul was eliminated in the group stage.
On top of all, the Mexicans certainly feel tired after the nightmarish game against Western Sydney, where the terrain resembled a swamp…really! Therefore, FIFA decided to change the location of the semi-final and instead in Rabat, it will take place in Marrakech.
In any event, Real Madrid would be the absolute favorite in that match, and probably the Spaniards will win today’s clash convincingly. In our opinion, the match is going to end with a final result of 3:0. That says our soccer forecast is 1.
