Real Madrid vs Al Ain
2018 Fifa Club World Cup Final

Kick-off time: 4:30pm GMT
Real Madrid are one game away from being crowned champions of the world once again as Los Blancos face Al Ain in the 2018 Fifa Club World Cup Final.
Real's third Champions League triumph in a row sealed them a spot in Fifa's prestigious club competition, and Santiago Solari's side will take on Al Ain after the UAE champions shocked River Plate in the semi-finals.
A Gareth Bale hat-trick saw Real cruise past Kashima Antlers 3-1 to book their spot in the final, and the Spanish giants are on course to make it a hat-trick of Club World Cup successes.

Marco Asensio has been ruled out of the FIFA Club World Cup final against Al Ain after the European champions confirmed he had sustained a thigh injury.
The Spain international, who has underperformed this season and has not scored in La Liga since September, picked up the injury in Wednesday's 3-1 win over Kashima Antlers in the semi-finals.
He came on as a substitute and then had to be replaced 14 minutes later.
