Recently, Riyadh Crescent coach Inzaghi attended a pre-match press conference and talked about his first Club World Cup match against Real Madrid.

Inzaghi Jr.'s debut in the Club World Cup and his debut at Riyadh Crescent were not easy, they will play against Real Madrid at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami. At the pre-match press conference, the Italian said of Real Madrid: "Tomorrow we will face the team that may be the best in the world, but we will also play according to our own characteristics."

"We came here with great confidence, hoping to perform well in the Club World Cup. The club has done a lot of work to improve the team's level. However, due to the short transfer window, we don't have much time. We will do our best to play this game well."

Inzagi revealed that the main striker Mitrovic will miss the game against Real Madrid due to injury, which is a considerable loss for the team. This season, the Serbian scorer has scored 28 goals in 36 games.

Inzaghi Jr. also expressed his best wishes to Inter Milan. He led the team to the Champions League final twice, but neither of them won, losing to Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain respectively. In addition, he praised Alonso's coaching philosophy, who will also lead his new boss Real Madrid for the first time.

"We are all coaches who coach a new team for the first time. I know him very well and his previous team, Leverkusen. I have a great respect for Alonso, who is an excellent coach who can quickly pass on his football philosophy to the team."
