Real Madrid vs Al Ahly live stream: How to watch Club World Cup fixture online and on TV

Everything you need to know

Real Madrid begin their Fifa Club World Cup campaign against Egyptian side Al Ahly in Morocco tonight.

It has been 11 years since the team from Europe did not win the Club World Cup and Real Madrid, who start their campaign in the semi-finals, will be going for their fifth Club World Cup title this week.

Al Ahly, who defeated Seattle Sounders in the quarter-finals, are the African Champions League winners but have lost at this stage in each of the last two seasons.

The 10-time African champions were beaten by Bayern Munich in 2020 and Palmeiras in 2021, and victory over Real Madrid would represent a huge scalp.

It follows the first semi-final on Tuesday night, which finished Flamengo 2-3 Al Hilal.
