Real’s World Cup clash moved

Real Madrid’s Fifa Club World Cup semi-final clash tomorrow with Mexico’s Cruz Azul has been switched to Marrakech from Rabat due to the waterlogged pitch at the Complexe Sportif Prince Moulay Abdellah.

European champions Madrid are looking to extend a 20-match winning run in all competitions. The other semi-final pits Auckland against San Lorenzo in Marrakech on Wednesday.

Back to La Liga, Barcelona captain Xavi rued his side’s missed chances as they were held 0-0 at Getafe on Saturday, the veteran playmaker describing the result as “a step backwards”.
