Maintaining team unity and collaboration, I think this is the key to our fight for all championships this year."  

“With the addition of new players, we must continue to improve ourselves and enhance our mutual understanding. Facing this important and challenging game, we must play in our best condition and strive for three points to ensure that we qualify as the first in the group.”  

"The Club World Cup has been a really great and new experience for me. This is the first time a tournament of this magnitude has been held and it has been touching to see the Real Madrid fans cheering us on every day and the deep emotional support they give us. The warmth and warmth of the fans at the hotel in Charlotte was incredible. We should be grateful every day to be able to represent this club, to defend its honour and to have the support of so many people."  

"We were one man short but Dean Huissen's pass was perfect and Vinicius's run was dangerous and he passed it back to me very calmly. I was in the best position at the time. Despite the numerical disadvantage, the opponent seemed a little relaxed and we took advantage of the wide spaces on the field to attack effectively," said Federico Valverde, reflecting on the goal against Pachuca.  

"After missing the penalty in the first game, I felt relieved. For me, the goal meant more than the team's victory, which is always the most important. I was eager to break the shadow of the previous game, so I celebrated with great excitement. In addition, when you fight for a long time against weaker opponents, every goal will bring more satisfaction."  

“It is a huge honor and pride to be recognized by the head coach. It inspires me and motivates me to keep working hard and be a role model for my teammates and the team. I hope to always be diligent and give my all, and be ready to contribute to the team and the coach. The coach is not only a great commander, but also an excellent player. It means a lot to me to get his praise.”  

"Coach Xabi Alonso asked me to have strong ball control and patience, to exploit the gaps in the opponent's defense and to continue to play to my strengths. But most importantly, he gave me great confidence and support, just like he kept encouraging me when I missed the penalty. I will always remember this."
