Breakout tournament star Gonzalo García scored his third goal of the Club World Cup to power Real Madrid past Juventus 1-0 in the round of 16 on Tuesday afternoon in Miami Gardens, Fla., and into the quarterfinals.
García has started all four of Real Madrid’s matches because of a gastrointestinal illness to star striker Kylian Mbappé. The 21-year-old broke a second-half tie with a header in the 54th minute, giving him a goal contribution in every match of the tournament.
García subbed out in the 68th as Mbappé checked in to make his Club World Cup debut to the delight of the 62,149 at Hard Rock Stadium. He missed Real Madrid’s three group stage matches.
García’s header came after Real Madrid had forced Juventus goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio into consecutive spectacular saves in the opening minutes of the second half. It was an incredible performance from the Italian goalie, whose 10 saves kept the match close.
It was a scoreless and evenly contested first half, the first time either team had been held without a goal in the opening half of a match in the tournament. Both sides had chances, including Randal Kolo Muani’s effort that went over the bar, and Federico Valverde’s shot that was denied by Di Gregorio.
But Real Madrid overwhelmed Juventus in the second half, with 11 shots on target to 2.
Real Madrid will face the winner of Tuesday night’s match between Borussia Dortmund and Monterrey, on Saturday at MetLife Stadium.
Al Hilal 4, Manchester City 3: Marcos Leonardo scored his second goal on a rebound in the 112th minute, and Al Hilal stunned Manchester City late Monday night in Orlando, eliminating the Premier League power from the Club World Cup in the round of 16.
In a back-and-forth thriller at Camping World Stadium, the Saudi Arabian club took the lead three times, including twice in extra time. Kalidou Koulibaly put Al Hilal ahead 3-2 in the 94th minute, but Phil Foden — who entered as a substitute four minutes earlier — equalized in the 104th.
Leonardo finally put Man City away. Goalkeeper Ederson saved a header by Sergej Milinkovic-Savic from inside the penalty box and the ball deflected to Leonardo, who redirected it as he fell to the pitch near the left post.
Al Hilal moves on to face Brazilian club Fluminense, which took down Inter Milan earlier Monday.
