🎥 Inzaghi fuming, Echeverri free-kick 🤯 in 6-0 City win, Cherki scores
So many emotions and so many highlights in the two late-night matches of the Club World Cup. Simone Inzaghi's Al Hilal drew with Salzburg, complicating the path to the round of 16. Guardiola's Manchester City, on the other hand, secured their place in the next round by thrashing Al Ain.
The field was the protagonist, but not only.
INZAGHI SHOW: FURY ON THE BENCH, MIRACULOUS BONO-KK
The usual show from the "demon" Simone Inzaghi, who against Salzburg collected the second consecutive draw of the campaign.
After a missed opportunity by Malcom, the reaction of the former Inter coach is eloquent: a fury on the bench with arms wide in despair for yet another missed chance by his team.
Not just missed chances but also miraculous saves like those from Bono (still decisive after saving a penalty against Real) in collaboration with Kalidou Koulibaly. 0-0 and Al Hilal, with 2 points in the group, will need to beat Pachuca and hope for a Real victory over Salzburg to advance.
CITY SHOW, THE RISE OF ECHEVERRI
Manchester City put on their world show by beating Al Ain 6-0 and showcasing their brightest stars. The match was wrapped up in the first half with goals from Gundogan and Haaland at the start and end of the contest, interrupted by Echeverri's gem. At the end of the game, there was also time and space for Cherki's goal.
A magical free-kick from the 2006-born talent for his first goal with Manchester City. A gem, a jewel that puts the Argentine in the spotlight before the whole world.
A great goal also for Cherki with a feint and precise diagonal in the exchange with Haaland.
Incredible statistic for Guardiola, who has won all 10 Club World Cup matches he has participated in.
