Real

Madrid

confirmed this Saturday its special relationship with

Morocco

.

After lifting the

2014 Club World Cup

in

Marrakech , in what was

Ancelotti

's last title of the first stage

, the white team raised

their eighth

Club World Cup to the sky of

Rabat

, fifth of the new format added to

three Intercontinental Cups

.

And he did it enjoying, as it had not happened in an international final for a long time, with a

festival of goals

against

Saudi

Al Hilal

, a technically and tactically inferior team that dreamed for minutes of being able to surprise.

Between

Vinicius and Valverde

, both with two goals, they gave Madrid their

100th title

,

Ancelotti's eighth

as Real Madrid coach and the

fourth of the

21-22 season after the League, the Champions League and the European Super Cup.

Vinicius and Valverde begin to have a registered trademark:

Made in Carletto

.

Two young people who have exploded under the orders of the Italian coach.

The former scored the first and fifth and assisted Benzema for the third, while the Uruguayan scored the second and fourth.

Ancelotti knows that greatness is not taught, it comes as standard.

For this reason, given the prospect of a final that could be a turning point in the second part of the season, the transalpine did not hesitate to line up

Kroos, Modric and Benzema

.

The Frenchman, who has been recovering from some discomfort all week, missed the semifinal and traveled to Rabat on Thursday, but started because he is most comfortable on the pitch.

Also Madrid, despite the fact that his return forced

Rodrygo

to return to the bench.

electric start

The whites started trying to put pressure on the weak defense of Al Hilal, their weakest point.

An intense pressure after loss that was missed in Ancelotti's box.

And in minute 12, with the teams still getting to know each other, a wall between Valverde and Benzema in three quarters of the field ended with a pass from the Frenchman into Vinicius's space.

The Brazilian, with a pause, defined against

Al Muaiouf

, who touched the ball but did not prevent the goal.

The striker, who had already scored the first goal for the Whites against Al-Ahly, danced.

Five minutes later, the Saudi defense let Modric

think too much

, he won the end line and put a cross at mid-height that complicated goalkeeper Al Muaiouf.

The goalkeeper rejected the ball badly, the South Korean

Jang

cleared it too short and

Valverde

hooked a volley diagonally that slipped into the rival net after touching a defender.

Again, as in the semifinal, Vinicius and Valverde put Madrid 2-0 ahead.

The goal gave Ancelotti's men confidence, who enjoyed possession for almost ten minutes watching the final come to a close.

Mistake.

In a counter attack by Al Hilal,

Rüdiger

took an offside foul and allowed

Marega

to launch a run from midfield.

The striker was left alone against

Lunin

and closed the gap.

With the goal, Madrid backed down and the game went into reflection.

Fighting in the center of the field, some acceleration from the Saudis and almost all possession for the Whites, who tried to extend their advantage on the counter.

Run-run at halftime.

Vinicius, 16 goals

After the intermission and with the tight result, Madrid raised its intensity and verticality several steps.

Always in Vinicius's boots.

In minute 54, the Brazilian, marked by several defenders in the left zone of attack, put a perfect outside ball that

Benzema

only had to push into the Saudi goal.

This time Madrid did not relax

.

A couple of minutes later, between

Carvajal and Valverde

they made the fourth.

The winger reached the peak of the area and saw a space for the Uruguayan, who attacked the diagonal towards the rival goal to score his second goal first.

With 4-1 on the scoreboard, the obligation of a team that aspires to win more titles this season would be to 'kill' the duel.

Control the times

and avoid more scares.

But this Madrid, which little by little is recovering electricity in its attack, continues to be soft in defense.

Vietto

, formerly of Atlético, found an inexplicable hole behind

Alaba and Camavinga

and faced

Lunin

, whom he beat with an excellent chip.

With the public encouraged by the goalscoring party, the entry of

Ceballos

gave Madrid more resources in attack and came fifth.

The Andalusian cut a defender inside the area and

Vinicius

found the ball to put his 'hand' in the final.

Second goal of the match for the Brazilian, third in this World Cup and

16th of the season

, 6 off the mark from the previous year.

The final minutes confirmed the weakness of the white defense, with

Vietto scoring to make it 5-3

and with Lunin unable to avoid the goals, but they also ensured a new trophy for the Bernabéu museum.

One with which Madrid, which breathes triumphs, hopes to find itself after a difficult winter.
