Manchester City, the big favorite of the World Cup?

Time turned to the storm this Thursday in Orlando. Cleanly and figuratively for a Juventus who took the water in front of Manchester City. While the two European clubs had won their first two games at the Club World Cup against Wydad Casablanca and the Emirati in Al-Aïn, the group's first place returned to convincing Cityzens.

Thanks to achievements signed Doku (9e), Kalulu (26e), from an improbable CSC (see below), Haaland (52e), Foden (69e) and Savinho (75e), the Skyblues took their ease against bianconeri who replied twice. By Koopmeiners on a Bourde from Ederson (11e) and Vlahovic (84e).

Coming into play in the last quarter of an hour, Cherki had a sixth goal ball for the Mancunians but the former Lyonnais this time remained silent. Whatever, Manchester City is the only team of this World Cup who can boast of having won her three group matches. With in the round of 16 an opponent who will be determined in the night between Real Madrid, Al-Hilal and RB Salzburg.
