Kylian Mbappe to miss Real Madrid's Club World Cup game against Pachuca due to illness

Kylian Mbappe will not feature in Real Madrid's Club World Cup game against Pachuca on Sunday.
The 26-year-old missed his side's opening game against Al Hilal on Wednesday and was later hospitalised after being diagnosed with acute gastroenteritis.
The France international left the hospital on Thursday but has not recovered in time to travel to Charlotte with his Real Madrid teammates to face Pachuca at the Bank of America Stadium.
Real Madrid captain Dani Carvajal will also not be available for Sunday's game against the Mexican side.
The 33-year-old defender has been out of action since he ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his right knee in October last year.
He has since returned to training, but a neck injury will see him miss Real's second group stage game.

Real Madrid beats Pachuca 3-1 in Club World Cup while playing most of the match with 10 men

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Jude Bellingham and Arda Güler scored first-half goals and short-handed Real Madrid bounced back from a disappointing performance in its Club World Cup opener to beat Pachuca 3-1 on Sunday in front of 70,248 spectators at Bank of America Stadium. Seven minutes in, defender Raul Asencio received a red card, forcing Real Madrid to play the remainder of the match with 10 men. It hardly mattered as Madrid dominated the Mexican club rest of the way. Bellingham got the Spanish power on the board in the 35th minute when he took a pass from Fran Garcia just inside the box and belted a perfectly placed left-footed shot past goalkeeper Carlos Moreno into the right corner. Eight minutes later, Güler made it 2-0 when he delivered a right-footed shot from the center of the box to the bottom left corner off an assist from Gonzalo García. Federico Valverde put the final touches on the win in the second half with a sliding right-footed shot off an assist from Brahim Díaz. Goalkeeper Thabaut Courtois was on form with five saves in the first half. He turned away two point-blank shots in the early going and finished with 10 saves. Elías Montiel ended Courtois' bid for a shutout when he scored in the 80th minute for Pachuca, which fell to 0-2 in group play. Kylian Mbappé has missed both Club World Cup starts as he continues to recover from being hospitalized with acute gastroenteritis. He did not travel to Charlotte, but the team remains hopeful that he'll be ready to play on Thursday night against Salzburg. Key moment There were some uneasy minutes early in the match for Madrid when Asencio pulled down Pacheco's Agustin Palavecino as he was entering the box following a breakaway, forcing Aurelein Tchouameni to move to center back. But Madrid stayed on the attack and Bellingham had the breakthrough goal. Takeaways Madrid looked very much out of sync on Wednesday, playing Saudi Arabia's Al Hilal to a 1-1 draw in coach Xabi Alonso's first game when Federico Valverde's stoppage-time penalty was saved. That changed on Sunday as the talented roster began to mesh, with precise passing leading to both first-half goals. Noteworthy The game was played on a temporary grass field. The stadium is home to the NFL's Carolina Panthers, who play on an artificial surface. ... With temperatures in the low 90s Fahrenheit (low 30s Celsius), players were given a water breaks midway through each half. ___ AP soccer:
