Real Madrid vs Pachuca: When and where to watch the Merengues’ next FIFA Club World Cup match | OneFootball

There was a lot of excitement among the Real Madrid fans about the FIFA Club World Cup that is currently underway in the USA. This was the first competition that the Merengues were set to play after the significant changes that took place in their team in the last few weeks, i.e., the appointment of Xabi Alonso as the head coach and the addition of Trent Alexander-Arnold and Dean Huijsen in the defence.

However, this mood must have been dampened to a significant extent by the performance Los Blancos put on display in their opening match against Al-Hilal. This match ended in a 1-1 draw, and one can argue that the Saudi side was even better than Real Madrid at some points in the game.

Still, it was only the first game of a new era, and it is clear that the team still needs time to adapt to the methods of their new coach. Furthermore, their biggest superstar, Kylian Mbappe, was also unavailable for this game due to a fever.

The Merengues are now set to face the Mexican side Pachuca in their second game in the competition, and despite the underwhelming display in the opening game, the Vikings fans will still be excited to see their team perform against the side they defeated to win the Intercontinental Cup back in December.

How and Where to Watch Real Madrid-Pachuca

Undoubtedly, the best way to watch this important game would be on DAZN, as the British Sports Streaming service will be broadcasting all the games. In fact, the outlet is offering its coverage free of cost, and one needs only to download their app and sign up to watch the game, which would be a highly entertaining experience owing to its unique and interactive features.

Real Madrid still among the favorites

Despite the underwhelming result and performance in the first game, Real Madrid are still among the favorites to win this competition. The Merengues will be particularly driven to go all the way and get their hands on the trophy as they were unable to win any big piece of silverware this season.

Mbappe might still be unable to play after he was hospitalized with a fever. However, Los Blancos still have enough quality in their ranks to get a win in this game and thus continue their hopes of making it to the next round in the competition.
