Real Madrid mark the start of a new era on Wednesday when they take on Al Hilal in their first group stage match of the Club World Cup. New head coach Xabi Alonso will take charge of his debut

Summer signings Dean Huijsen and Trent Alexander-Arnold both made their club debuts as Alonso's side were held to a 1-1 draw by Al Hilal in their FIFA Club World Cup opener. Gonzalo Garcia superbly fired Real Madrid into a first-half lead before Ruben Neves equalised from the penalty spot.

Xabi Alonso called for patience after Real Madrid's 1-1 draw with Al Hilal in their opening game at the Club World Cup, saying implementing the changes he wants to make "will take time."
