Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso has singled out five of his players following their Club World Cup Round of 16 win against Juventus on Tuesday night.
Alonso watched as Real Madrid defeated Juventus 1-0 to qualify for the quarter-final stage.
Gonzalo Garcia scored the only goal of the encounter in the second half.
Real Madrid will now face Borussia Dortmund in the last-8 in the coming days.
Speaking after the encounter, Alonso singled out the likes of Arda Guler, Jude Bellingham, Fede Valverde, Aurélien Tchouaméni and Dani Caballos, insisting that the Los Blancos need them because one player cannot organise a team.
“Arda Güler? I’m happy, he’s doing well,” Alonso said at his post-match interview.
“But it’s not just him, one player can’t organise a team. We need all of them, Fede, Jude, Tchouaméni, Ceballos…”
