Trent Alexander-Arnold's first

Alexander-Arnold's assist helps Real reach the quarterfinals. In the early morning of July 2, in the match of the round of 16 of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025™, Real defeated Juventus 1-0 to enter the quarterfinals.

In the early morning of July 2, in the 54th minute of the match, Alexander-Arnold received the ball on the right wing and made an accurate cross for Gonazlo Garcia to head the ball from close range, defeating goalkeeper Di Gregorio, helping Real defeat Juventus to enter the quarter-finals of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025™.

The assist for Gonzalo Garcia also marked a turning point in Alexander-Arnold's integration journey at the Spanish Royal team. This move explains the determination of Real Madrid's leadership to own the English defender in the past half year.

With his superb individual technique and precise passing ability, Alexander-Arnold launched a signature pass into the penalty area, helping young talent Gonzalo García jump high to head the ball home.

It was Alexander-Arnold's first assist for Real Madrid, in his fourth appearance for the club, and Real's decision to spend £10m to sign Alexander-Arnold a month early proved to be the right one.

Ahead of this match, Alexander-Arnold has faced much criticism for his unconvincing form in three group stage matches, where Real Madrid drew 1-1 with Al Hilal and won against Pachuca and Red Bull Salzburg.

However, his performance against Juventus, especially his assist and ability to keep a clean sheet for Real's defence, proved his worth. Mail Sport quoted Alexander-Arnold as saying: "Adapting to a new role in a new team is always a challenge, but I love challenges. It helps me to maximize my abilities."

He was deployed as a full-back by coach Xabi Alonso in a 3-4-3 formation, using his passing and creativity to support the attack. Things at Real Madrid are just getting started for the former Liverpool defender.
