Real Madrid Dominates Al Hailal, Claims Fifth Club World Cup Tittle.

Real Madrid made history on Saturday as they beat Al Hilal to claim their fifth Club World Cup title with a pulsating 5-3 win over Al Hilal in Morocco.

Vinicius Junior and Fede Valverde struck twice each, while Karim Benzema also scored on his return from injury in Madrid's spectacular victory over their Saudi Arabian opponents.

Madrid's emphatic triumph at Rabat's Prince Moulay Abdellah stadium secured their second piece of silverware of the season, after winning the European Super Cup in August.

"We are very happy, for the eighth time Madrid are champions of the world, it was what we had to do," Said club coach Ancelotti told Telecinco.

"We're happy, it was a good game. We had a lot of quality up front.

"I think we were good up front, with Vinicius, Karim, Valverde, who got two, up top the team had mobility and quality." He added.

Ancelotti brought Benzema back into the starting line-up after he had missed the semi-final win over Al Ahly with a thigh injury, with Rodrygo dropping to the bench.

The 35-year-old striker created the opening goal for Vinicius with a short pass to send the Brazilian winger through on goal.

After a frustrating spell in Spain because of racist abuse from the stands and opponents targeting him on the pitch, Vinicius was able to enjoy himself in Morocco, netting in both of Madrid's matches and crowned player of the tournament.

Real Madrid sits eight points behind rivals Barcelona in their La Liga campaign, who also beat them in the Spanish Super Cup final in January this year.
