The second date of the group's group phase left strong emotions, confirmed classified and a good football dose with Colombian stamp. While some teams have already secured their place in eighths and others said goodbye to the competition, individual actions left their own names to highlight.
The 'meringue' painting responded again at the right time. Real Madrid sealed his classification after imposing himself in a complex match, in which he played much with ten men. Even so, the trade and hierarchy of the Xabi Alonso team were enough to take the three points and continue as a firm candidate for the title.
Colombians at the Club World Cup
The Colombian midfielder continues to add points within the eleven of Abel Ferreira. Richard Ríos was a starter and had an outstanding performance in Palmeiras' 2-1 victory against Ahly Egyptian. With personality and balance in the middle of the field, it was one of the key pieces for the “Verdão” to ensure the result and approach the next round.
Fluminense took a valuable 4-2 victory against Ulsan Hyundai and one of the great responsible was Jhon Arias. The Colombian end was a figure with precise assistance and a spectacular free kick. His performance was decisive for the Brazilian team to remain one step away from the eighths, and its level continues after a great season in the Brazilian.
Although the duel between Monterrey and River Plate ended without goals, Nelson Deossa was one of the high points of the Mexican team. The Colombian flyer showed criteria at the exit, good recovery and personality to compete in a closed meeting. Monterrey still fights to advance and Deossa is consolidated as a piece of trust in the Doménec Torrent scheme.
