On this evening in the 2018 Club World Cup final taking place in Abu Dhabi, the Madrid team "Real" faces the sensation team of the tournament "Al Ain". The local Abu Dhabi team, led by a specialist from Croatia, surpassed "River Plate" in the fight for a place in the final after an 11-meter penalty shootout. Now they will try to create the same sensation against the Madrid team "Real", which has been the world champion for the past two years. Zoran Mamić, 47, understands that this is a difficult mission, but he is waiting for a miracle. "The Madrid team is the biggest in this tournament, but sometimes a 'Smart' car can defeat a 'Mercedes'," said the Croat at a press conference. "I think we deserve to be in the final. The team is tired and doesn't feel very well, but we are motivated to show a club like 'Real' what we are worth. "Real" will give everything, but our advantage is that they are considered the favorites in the match. We are facing really tough match, but I'm sure we will put up a good fight," added Z. Mamić. "Al Ain" has played six matches in the last 18 days.
