FIFA Club World Cup: Fluminense vs. Al-Hilal Picks — Inzaghi to Guide Saudi’s Through to Final Four? (Jul 4)

Two of the biggest shocks at this year’s FIFA Club World Cup were inflicted on Monday evening, as Fluminense and Al-Hilal both overcame European rivals to secure their spots in the quarterfinals.

Brazil’s Fluminense were excellent against Inter Milan, as they comfortably recorded a 2-0 success.

However, it was Al-Hilal’s dramatic 4-3 win over Man City that grabbed the global headlines. The victories recorded by both teams will give them hope that they could go all the way in the competition this year.

Both of these sides produced stunning victories in the previous round of the competition, and that will give both sides hope of reaching the Club World Cup final in 2025.

However, Al-Hilal’s counter-attacking style may be better suited against European teams, which means that it could be worth siding with the Brazilian club to claim victory in this fascinating quarterfinal.
