CWC: City’s six for Round of 16 – Al Ain broken into pieces

Al Ain probably regretted coming to the USA and participating in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup. Four days after Juventus crushed them 5-0, Man City improved the Old Lady’s work, dismantling the UAE side 6-0 and marking it as arguably the worst team in the tournament.Pep Guardiola made a “crazy” move and – as if he was playing Pro Evolution Soccer or FIFA – changed the entire starting lineup, all 11 players (?!), but still gave no hope to the crew from Asia.💫 You saw Gundo’s goal… now see it from ALL ANGLES!Watch the @FIFACWC | June 14 – July 13 | Every Game | Free | https://t.co/i0K4eUu4lJ | #FIFACWC #TakeItToTheWorld #MCIAIN pic.twitter.com/O1pCIX4FR7— DAZN Football (@DAZNFootball) June 23, 2025 🎥 THE ECHEVERRI GOLAZOOOOO — FROM ALL ANGLES!Watch the @FIFACWC | June 14 – July 13 | Every Game | Free | https://t.co/i0K4eUtwwb | #FIFACWC #TakeItToTheWorld #MCIAIN pic.twitter.com/3v4w658Dif— DAZN Football (@DAZNFootball) June 23, 2025 By the break, it was 3-0, as Ilkay Gundogan, Claudio Echeverri, and Erling Haaland from the spot paved the way for the Cityzens’ triumph. In the second half, the Premier League side was quiet until the final 20 minutes when the popular Gundo completed a brace, Oscar Bobb netted his first goal in the tournament, and Rayan Cherki scored his maiden goal with the Manchester giant.73′ GOAL @ManCityGündoğan with the finesse!

Alongside Al Ain, the Moroccan Wydad are knocked out of the CWC, though they left a somewhat better impression.In the final round in Group G, the two eliminated teams will fight for honour, while City and Juventus will battle for the top of the table and to avoid Real Madrid in the Round of 16.CWC: Tie one King’s hand and he’ll slap you with the other!
