After playing a league game against Valladolid, the Real Madrid squad boarded a plane and flew to Japan to compete in the 2012 Club World Cup as last season's Champions League winners.

The Club World Cup is an international football tournament hosted by FIFA and featuring the top teams from six continents, and its first edition began in 2005.

The Club World Cup is nominally the highest level of competition at the club level in the world, and the winner can be called a world champion.

Of course, the gold content is more than a step worse than the Champions League, but it is like a warm-up game.

The predecessor of the Club World Cup was the Toyota Cup, which was held in 1981, and further on, the Intercontinental Cup, which began in 1960.

Because of the inconvenient transportation in that era, the importance of the Intercontinental Cup was not high, and in everyone's mind, it was similar to the warm-up game, and many teams were unwilling to go back and forth to play the Intercontinental Cup to affect their team's normal games or preparations, resulting in the interruption of many tournaments and the failure to be held.

However, with the development of modern football and the convenience of transportation, everyone has begun to attach importance to the championship of any event.

After all, one more title is also good.

This year's Real Madrid, in particular, won the Club World Cup to achieve the 2012 annual six crowns, which is an unprecedented annual super slam in world football and must be taken seriously.

Therefore, on the plane to Japan, it was not only the Real Madrid team and coaches, team doctors, and staff, but also the club's top management such as Florentino.

In fact, this year's Club World Cup has already begun, because there are still teams that need to play qualifying, quarter-finals and so on.

A total of seven teams competed in the 2012 FIFA Club World Cup, namely 2011/2012 Champions League champions Real Madrid, 2012 Copa Libertadores Corinthians, 2012 AFC Champions League champion Ulsan Hyundai, 2012 African Champions League champion Al Ahly, 2011/2012 CONCACAF Champions League champion Monterrey, 2011/2012 Oceania Champions League champion Auckland City, and hosts Sanfrecce Hiroshima, 2012 J-League champion Japan.

Because of the high level of European and South American football and the lack of teams, Real Madrid and Corinthians went straight to the semi-finals.

The remaining five teams, Sanfrecce Hiroshima played the qualifying round with Auckland City first, and the match was held on December 6, Sanfrecce Hiroshima used their home advantage to beat Auckland City 1-0 to reach the quarter-finals, and Auckland City became the seventh place in this Club World Cup.

On December 9, two quarter-finals were held, with Sanfrecce Hiroshima vs. Al Ahly and Ulsan Hyundai vs. Monterey respectively.

The final result of the match was a 2-1 loss to African champions Al Ahly and a 3-1 defeat to COMCACAF champions Monterrey.

The collective exit of the two Asian teams proves the low level of Asian football.

Al Ahly and Monterrey reached the semi-finals and will play Real Madrid and Corinthians in the semi-finals.

Prior to that, Ulsan Hyundai and Sanfrecce Hiroshima had fought for five or six places.

In the end, Sanfrecce Hiroshima defeated Ulsan Hyundai 3-2 and finished fifth, and Ulsan Hyundai became the sixth place in this Club World Cup.

Then the rest is the semi-finals, where the European champions and South American champions, who have the highest level of football, play one after another.

First up was the South American champion Corinthians.

On December 12, at the Toyota Stadium, Corinthians defeated African champions Al Ahly 1-0 to advance to the final.

Next, it's Real Madrid's turn to come on, and they will face the CONCACAF champions Monterrey.

At 19:30 local time on the evening of December 13, the second match of the 2012 Club World Cup semifinals between Real Madrid and Monterrey officially began at the Yokohama International Arena.

Despite being a semi-final against little-known teams from North and Central America, the match was broadcast from dozens of countries.

The reason for this is the fame of Lu Wenbin and Real Madrid, as well as the attraction of Real Madrid's imminent six-time title.

Moreover, the live stands were all full, and the Japanese fans welcomed Real Madrid with great enthusiasm, and even Lu Wenbin was screamed and cheered by countless female fans.

With Sanfrecce Hiroshima already knocked out of the tournament, these Japanese fans naturally poured their affection for the game into Real Madrid, who had more superstars.

Especially Lu Wenbin, even if he is a Chinese player, he can't stop his extraordinary skills and great achievements from attracting fans.

Except for a few extremists, most Japanese fans still have great respect for Lu Wenbin, and even worship him.

Club Monterrey, is a club from Monterrey, the capital of the state of Nuevo León in northern Mexico.

To win the CONCACAF Champions League, Monterrey's strength is obviously good.

But in front of the heavily built and star-studded Real Madrid, Monterrey is clearly still too weak.

In the 4th minute of the opening game, when he got the ball in the midfield, he saw the opponent's goalkeeper standing slightly forward, and Lu Wenbin suddenly got up and shot a long shot.

Shocked by the fierce general Orozko, he hurriedly retreated, barely jumping off the line of the small forbidden zone, but still failed to block the long-range lob.

Lu Wenbin's first goal in the Club World Cup was a brilliant long-range lob shot of more than 40 meters.

It was a cold day, and the fans were hunched down to watch the game after the kick-off.

As a result, as soon as the game began, the fans at the scene were excited by Lu Wenbin's wonderful goal.

Some fans simply stopped sitting down and kept standing and watching.

The whole Monterrey team is mentally prepared to be defeated by Real Madrid, after all, Real Madrid's strength is too strong.

However, they didn't expect to fall behind at the beginning, and they were scored such a beautiful goal by Lu Wenbin.

Especially the goalkeeper Orozko, who was successfully shot by Lu Wenbin in the front position, almost wanted to die.

After the restart of the game, the whole Montero team, which was hit at the beginning, was a little out of shape.

In the 17th minute, Real Madrid scored again. And, this time it's an own goal from Monterrey.

Ozil crossed from the side, Lu Wenbin and Benzema and others did not grab the first point, but the defender Mesa, who grabbed the first point, also did not eat the right part under the interference of Lu Wenbin, and the header who wanted to clear the bottom line was pushed into his own goal by him.

This is another heavy blow to the entire Monterrey team.

was scored by Lu Wenbin with a beautiful long-range shot, and then put himself on an own goal to lead to a 0-2 deficit, and the whole Monterrey team had little confidence to win.

Real Madrid were in full control of the game.

In the 38th minute, Real Madrid scored the third goal with a long-range shot from outside the forbidden area assisted by Ronaldo's cross from the side, and Real Madrid led 3-0.

In the 57th minute of the second half, Alonso took a corner kick, and Ronaldo jumped high in the forbidden area and scored with a header, giving Real Madrid a 4-0 lead.

At this point, the game was basically over and Mourinho started to make substitutions.

As a result, before replacing Lu Wenbin, Lu Wenbin scored a long-distance counterattack goal in the 65th minute and scored a hat trick.

Real Madrid lead Monterrey 5-0.

Then Lu Wenbin was replaced.

It wasn't until stoppage time that Monterrey seized a free-kick and scored a face-saving goal from striker Denigris' zone.

Real Madrid beat Monterrey 5-1 in the semi-finals of the Club World Cup to reach the final.

They will face South American champions Corinthians for the final Club World Cup title.

It's a final battle for Real Madrid's six-time crown of the year.
