(AP Photo/Julia Demaree Nikhinson) WASHINGTON (AP) — Al Hilal dominated possession but Salzburg's defense held in a scoreless draw on Sunday that meant that Group H would come down a pair of consequential upcoming matches in the Club World Cup. Earlier in the day, Real Madrid defeated Pachuca 3-1, eliminating the Liga MX club. But with the tie between Al Hilal and Salzburg, the group's spots in the knockout round remained up for grabs. Advertisement Salzburg will face a challenging match against Real Madrid in Philadelphia on Thursday with Kylian Mbappe likely return after missing Real Madrid's first two matches, according to coach Xabi Alonso. Al Hilal will face Pachuca in Nashville the same day. Al Hilal, the runners up at the 2022 Club World Cup, pressured Salzburg from the start, with nearly 62 percent possession through the first half. They took 10 shots, but had just one on target. For the game, Al Hilal had four shots on goal. It was clear that Al Hilal was missing the finishing touch of striker Aleksandar Mitrovic, who has missed both of the team's Club World Cup matches with a muscle injury. The announced attendance At Audi Field was 16,167 fans, with big swaths of the crowd clad in Al Hilal's bright blue. In the final moments, the crowd chanted for Al Hilal, urging the team to score. Advertisement Key Moment Al Hilal goalkeeper Yassine Bounou stopped a nearly point blank shot from Salzburg's John Mellberg early in the second half. Moments later, Salzburg goalkeeper Christian Zawieschitzky saved a shot by Rúben Neves from outside the box as the game grew tense. Takeaways Al Hilal has proven resilient throughout its first two matches. The club drew 1-1 with Real Madrid in its opening match with Neves converting a penalty and Bounou saving a penalty attempt at the death. ___ AP soccer:

Al-Hilal win to keep in touch at the top
Al-Hilal won 2-0 at Al-Taawoun on Saturday to cut Al-Ittihad's lead at the top of the Saudi Pro League back to four points. Both Hilal and Taawoun had enjoyed success in Asian competitions during the week, and returned home to play out a hard-fought clash in Buraidah. The champions' form in the league may have been patchy of late but they bounced back to return to winning ways with a strong performance. There were only 12 minutes on the clock when Mohamed Kanno put the defending champions ahead. Salem Al Dawsari swung over a corner from the left which was met by the midfielder who directed his header home. Hilal goalkeeper Yassine Bounou made a number of saves to maintain the champions' lead though the Riyadh giants had, and missed, plenty of opportunities, but then with a quarter of an hour remaining, Marcos Leonardo added a second to seal the win. Hamad Al Yami floated over a deep cross for the in-form Brazilian to head home for his 17th league goal of the season, just two behind top scorer Cristiano Ronaldo. The result means that Al-Ittihad, who left it late to defeat Al-Riyadh 2-1 on Thursday, are top with 61 points while Al-Hilal are in second with 57. Al-Ahli also won in Asia in midweek but came home to lose 2-1 at Al-Okhdood to stay in fifth behind Al-Nassr and Al-Qadsiah. The Jeddah club have been in fine form of late and were full of confidence and took the lead just before the half hour thanks to an own goal from Damion Lowe. It was all looking good for the Greens until the 95th minute when the hosts equalised through Saleh Al-Abbas. There was still time for it to get worse for Al-Ahli as Godwin Saviour struck to win the game for the relegation-threatened Al-Okhdood Al Ahli's shock defeat means that they are in fifth in the table, on 48 points, three behind Al-Qadsiah and Al-Nassr. Al-Hilal and Al-Ittihad are, however, out in front.
