Al Hilal dominated possession in a scoreless draw with Salzburg on Sunday, resulting in an uncertain fate for Group H in the Club World Cup. Both teams now face critical matches ahead.
Earlier, Real Madrid defeated Pachuca 3-1, ousting the Liga MX club. Despite this, the stalemate between Al Hilal and Salzburg means the group's knockout spots remain undecided.
Salzburg is set for a tough match against Real Madrid, with star Kylian Mbappe possibly returning. Meanwhile, Al Hilal meets Pachuca, both on Thursday. Al Hilal, last year's runners-up, pressed Salzburg with 62% possession but missed striker Aleksandar Mitrovic's crucial finishing touch.
