Real Madrid vs Dortmund Club World Cup 2025 will bring an exciting rematch of the 2024 Champions League final this July at MetLife Stadium.
In the Club World Cup, Los Blancos defeated Juventus 1-0 to begin their knockout stage run. Gonzalo García helped Real Madrid defeat the Italian team and advance to the quarterfinals with his third goal in four games.
With the win, Real Madrid has now gone four games without a loss under Xabi Alonso. The La Liga runners-up only managed a 1-1 draw with Al Hilal in their opening match of the tournament after stumbling.
But since then, Los Blancos have won three straight games against Juventus, RB Salzburg, and Pachuca while giving up just one goal.
At MetLife Stadium, Real Madrid will play a well-known opponent in an attempt to build on their success in the US.
Borussia Dortmund is playing Real Madrid in the quarterfinals of the Club World Cup. The crucial match will mark the two teams’ third meeting in less than a year.
Real Madrid and Dortmund have faced each other 16 times in the Champions League, with the Spanish powerhouses winning eight of those encounters.
Most recently, in the 2024–25 Champions League league phase, Los Blancos trounced the German team 5–2.
The previous season, Real Madrid won their 15th Champions League trophy at Wembley Stadium after defeating BVB.
However, Alonso’s XI this summer will include new players like Dean Huijsen and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
