There is already an official of the first meeting Real Madrid have to argue FIFA Club World Cup which starts on February 1st. It will be on Wednesday, February 8, when the white club, in its capacity as the current champion of UEFA Champions Leagueplayed in the second semifinal of the tournament after the first to be played the day before and where white’s great rival in the tournament, the flamenco Brazilian who attended as the winner of Libertadores Cup.
A calendar to force the Real Madrid which has to travel at the latest to Morocco on Sunday, February 5. because the regulation FIFA for this competition, it obliges all participating clubs to be in an African country three days before the start of their participation. This is clear in point 4 of the competition format where it says “The clubs participating in the World Cup 2022 They should arrive at the venue of their first match at least three days before.”
Initially Real Madrid was due to play in Mallorca on February 5
We will see how this situation affects the calendar of the league of Real Madrid that this weekend before the start of the tournament he plans to visit Majorca of the twentieth day of the League. A promise that should initially be held exactly on February 5, the date when it should arrive in Morocco, because the League set the postponed match against Valencia for the presence of both teams in the Spanish Super Cup.
This can cause several things. The first is that both commitments are advanced, both the one that was postponed before the Valencia and it also allows Majorca play on Saturday 4th February. Another option will happen because they played Majorca first thing on Sunday and from there travel directly to Morocco. A quick move that will allow him to rest in the organizing country on the same Sunday, three days before his debut. And the latter can go through the request FIFA first trip on Monday, February 6.
The match for third and fourth place cannot go into overtime in the event of a tie
What is certain, win or lose Real Madrid that semifinal, has to stay on Morocco until Saturday February 11. Because the FIFA Regulations including the match dispute between the losers of both semifinals. The match will be played on the same day as the final. Meeting where, unlike the final, in the event of a tie there is no reason to dispute extra time. “However, if these matches are played before the final and the match is tied at the end of regulation time, no extra time will be played and the winner will be determined by a penalty shootout.”
That is, the Real Madrid will not return to the capital of Spain before this February 11 or even Sunday 12. As we explained a few weeks ago, The league counting dates for the dispute of the postponed league match against the Elche scheduled for the same weekend as even the event Real Madrid qualify for the semifinals of Copa del Rey and whose first leg is scheduled for Wednesday, February 8.
