The Spanish team secured a 3-0 victory over Austrian Red Bull Salzburg on Thursday to seal top spot in Group H and advance to the Club World Cup round of 16.
Real Madrid finished with seven points, two clear of Al-Hilal, who defeated Pachuca 2-0 in the day’s other group fixture. Salzburg, with four points, and Pachuca, who failed to register a point, were eliminated.
Real Madrid will next face Group G runners-up Juventus on Tuesday at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, while Al-Hilal take on Manchester City in Orlando on Monday.
Vinicius opened the scoring in the 40th minute with a strike from the edge of the box before turning provider in added time ahead of the break, delivering a deft back-heeled pass to Federico Valverde, who finished from close range.
Real continued to dominate after the break but it was not until the 84th minute that Gonzalo Garcia wrapped up the win, lobbing over the Salzburg goalkeeper in a quick counter.
