Real Madrid 2-0 San Lorenzo: On top of the world

Early this morning, Real Madrid comfortably defeated San Lorenzo 2-0 in Marrakech (Morocco) to add the World Cup trophy to their collection of titles this year, which already includes the Champions League, the UEFA Super Cup, and the Copa del Rey.

Sergio Ramos opened the scoring for the reigning European champions in the 37th minute, before Gareth Bale doubled the lead in the 51st minute. This goal was also Bale's third in a major final, having previously scored in the Champions League and Copa del Rey finals.

This victory concludes a memorable year for Carlo Ancelotti and his team, especially as their impressive winning streak, which began in mid-September, shows no signs of stopping.

The Spanish representatives should have scored the opening goal in the very first minute if Karim Benzema had been able to get a touch on the ball after Cristiano Ronaldo's tricky cross.

In the following minutes, San Lorenzo opted for a physically demanding style of play in an attempt to trouble their opponents. However, coach Edgardo Bauza's calculations proved ineffective, as Real Madrid were simply too strong for the Copa Libertadores champions.

Ronaldo missed a couple of free-kick opportunities, but Real Madrid ultimately didn't need the Portuguese superstar to score the opening goal.

From Bale's shot from a tight angle, which forced goalkeeper Sebastian Torrico into a difficult save, Real Madrid were awarded a corner kick. In this situation, Ramos, unmarked, leaped to meet Toni Kroos' cross and headed the ball into the net against the South American team.

Ramos scored the opening goal for Real Madrid with a header.

In the second half, it didn't take long for Real to double their lead. A sharp combination ended with Isco's direct pass to Bale in the penalty area, and although the Welsh midfielder's shot was rather weak and not particularly dangerous, Torrico still let the ball slip through his legs and into the net.

In the remaining time, Real continued to have scoring opportunities, but even Ronaldo couldn't capitalize on them and had a rare goalless day.

San Lorenzo also had a chance to pull one back in the final minutes, but Juan Mercier's decent long-range shot couldn't beat Iker Casillas.

In the earlier third-place match, Auckland City, representing New Zealand, won by defeating Cruz Azul of Mexico after a penalty shootout.

Starting lineup:

Real Madrid:Casillas, Carvajal (Arbeloa 73'), Pepe, Ramos (Varane 89'), Marcelo (Coentrao 44'), Ronaldo, Kroos, Rodriguez, Bale, Isco, Benzema.

San Lorenzo:Torrico, Yepes (Cetto 61'), Mas, Kannemann, Mercier, Buffarini, Kalinski, Barrientos, Ortigoza, Cauteruccio Rodriguez (Matos 68'), Veron (Romagnoli 57').
