Thanks for joining me for this. Sorry Gremio couldn’t offer us anything else going forward. Until we meet again (tomorrow for Barcelona v Deportivo).

Here’s the match report from a night when Real Madrid added another trophy to their cabinet.

Just waiting on the match report, hence me dragging this out. You can email in your questions if you really want.

Manchester City have just seen off Tottenham on their path to world domination, so Real Madrid might face some stiffer competition for the title next season.

Fireworks are flying up into the air now. The pyrotechnics really do top off what has been a good day for Real. Just the tough task of Barcelona next week for them now.

Ramos lifts the trophy, which is sweet. The shiny tissue player is being pushed into the air. It’s really inspiring for us all.

“What a night for the third choice goalkeeper,” says the commentator. Calm down, mate.

Infantino is now the star of the show as he hangs medals around necks. A truly great performance of the big dog.

Real Madrid are doing a guard of honour for Gremio, which is a nice touch.

The players from the third and fourth place playoff are getting their medals now. This could take a while.

Gold goes to Luka Modric who looks more genuinely happy with the award. He gets a hug from Ronaldo as they pose on the podium.

The almost certainly fictional ‘Silver Award’ is handed to Cristiano Ronaldo. He looks like he pretends he cares.

The Fifa Fair Play award goes to Real Madrid, which is ironically collected by red card enthusiast Sergio Ramos.

The officials have received their medals, which is nice. A smattering of applause for the men in black.

Infantino, Florentino Perez and assorted others have arrived for the ageing white man part of the ceremony.

Lots of women have turned up with medals to hand out to the winners and losers. Fifa really know how to drag out a ceremony.

There are a few Gremio fans crying in the stands, probably because they’ve travelled a long way to no see their team not have a shot on target.

Raphael Varane is speaking in Spanish, which is nice. He says “we’re very happy” with winning five trophies in 2017, which is understandable. Gremio’s skipper Geromel is chatting in Portuguese and said his team worked very hard.

Real Madrid are getting to celebrate with the wonderful tunes of Coldplay in the background, which is the sound of sporting success.

It’s a second consecutive Club World Cup title for Real Madrid and a fifth trophy in 2017 for Zinedine Zidane and his side. They were far superior on the night in Abu Dhabi and really should have won by more against a team who failed to have a shot on target.

It won’t go down as being a classic of the genre. Real Madrid are deserved victors as they actually tried to attack. Gremio defended well but couldn’t do anything going the other way. Ronaldo will love the fact his free-kick won his team the trophy, too.

90+2 min: Gremio spend the entire minute passing the ball around slowly. That’s not going to help you, lads.

90+1 min: Bale sets up Modric on the edge of the box but the midfielder sends the ball into orbit rather than the goal. Wastes a few seconds, though.

90 min: Cortez sends in a cross from the left but it goes straight out of play. Sums up Gremio’s attacking today. We have three minutes of injury-time to come!!

89 min: Still no shot on target from Gremio. You get what you deserve when you fail to create one half-decent chance.

88 min: Ramos smashes the ball down to the other end and then pretends Jael caught him to waste a few seconds. Classy.

86 min: Gremio haven’t had enough of the ball to make an impact. They might need to throw caution to the wind soon. They’re yet to have a shot on target.

84 min: The final throw of the dice from Gremio as Michel heads off and Maicon comes on. Don’t worry it’s not the one from City.

83 min: Bale is back on his feet and tries to bend one in with the outside of his foot from 16 yards but the goalkeeper is equal to it and tips the shot over.

82 min: Grohe gets the better of Ronaldo after Ramos played in the forward, but the Portuguese’s strike from inside the area was palmed away from the goalkeeper. In the build-up, Bale was cleaned out by a Gremio defender for his own amusement.
