Real Madrid's presence at the FIFA World Cup 2026 has been notable, with standout performances from several of their stars. As the group stage draws to a close, teams are finalizing their positions for the knockout rounds. Vinicius Jr. inspired Brazil to a commanding 3-0 win over Scotland, securing their place at the top of their group and setting up a clash with Japan in the round of 32. Meanwhile, Kylian Mbappe is preparing to lead France against Norway in a pivotal match that could determine their path in the tournament.
Ecuador made headlines with a narrow 2-1 victory over Germany, ensuring their advancement. On the other hand, Turkiye, despite having little to play for, emerged victorious against the USA with a thrilling 3-2 win. Real Madrid's Arda Guler was instrumental in Turkiye's success, scoring the equalizer and showcasing his skills with significant contributions throughout the match. Guler's performance was marked by his decisive goal, 67 touches, and 40 completed passes, reinforcing his growing reputation among Madrid fans.
Denzel Dumfries also shone as the Netherlands topped their group, securing a 3-1 win over Tunisia. His impactful play included forcing an own goal and maintaining pressure throughout the match. Although not yet officially a Madrid player, Dumfries is making a strong case with his performances at the tournament.
Antonio Rudiger faced a challenging match with Germany, stepping in for the injured Nico Schlotterbeck. Despite an early lead, Germany fell to Ecuador, and Rudiger, while avoiding major errors, seemed to struggle to match his past form. With competition for places at Real Madrid heating up, Rudiger's future as a starter could be uncertain.
Overall, Real Madrid players have left a significant mark on the World Cup, with Guler's performance being a standout moment. As the tournament progresses, fans will watch closely to see how these stars continue to impact their national teams' fortunes.
