FIFA Club World Cup: Real Madrid knocked Juventus to seal ¼ spot

The FIFA Club World Cup quarter-final lineup has been confirmed after a brilliant start to the knockout rounds.

There were shocks in the Round of 16, with several underdogs upsetting the odds to progress against more favoured opponents.

Fluminense sprung a surprise to eliminate Champions League finalists Inter Milan, while Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal ousted Manchester City in a seven-goal thriller. Those teams will meet in the last eight.

Palmeiras join that duo in providing non-European representation in the quarter-finals. The Brazilian side will meet Chelsea in the quarter-finals.

Elsewhere, there’s a mouthwatering clash between Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich, while Real Madrid take on Borussia Dortmund in a rematch of the 2023 Champions League final.

Gonzalo Garcia continued to impress in the absence of Kylian Mbappe with his third goal of the tournament as Real Madrid beat Juventus 1-0 in the last 16.

Dortmund progressed after a 2-1 win over Monterrey, with Serhou Guirassy on target twice.
