FIFA Club World Cup 2023 excitement is happening in Saudi Arabia. The Egyptian team Al Ahly, which won the CAF Champions League in Africa and reached the semi-finals by eliminating Al Ittihad, one of the all-star teams of Saudi Arabia, faced the Libertadores champion Fluminense, which was included in the tournament at this stage. With the goals it scored in the last 20 minutes of the highly competitive match, Fluminense defeated its opponent 2-0 and made its way to the final.
Fluminense took the lead with Jhon Arias’ penalty goal in the 71st minute, and John Kennedy determined the score of the match with the goal he scored in the 90th minute. Former Galatasaray player Felipe Melo, who started the match in the first 11 of the Brazilian team, was replaced by Marlon in the 76th minute.
HE IS 40 YEARS OLD BUT STILL AS YOU KNOW!
In the 18th minute of the match, Al Ahly captured its first clear position of the match, and the person who prevented the danger was Felipe Melo. The 40-year-old player ran back and made a critical intervention in a position where his team was caught short and did not give Al Ahly a chance to score. Melo’s reaction afterwards revealed his ongoing ambition.
