Juventus vs Man City LIVE SCORE: Action on NOW as Citizens run RIOT after Haaland, Foden, Savinho and Doku all SCORE
MANCHESTER CITY are AHEAD against Juventus in a mammoth Club World Cup clash on NOW!
City took the lead early, after Jeremy Doku got onto the end of an excellent Rayan Ait-Nouri pass to put the Citizens ahead.
A pair of mistakes decided the next goals, as a sloppy Ederson pass let Teun Koopmeiners in behind the City defence, before Pierre Kalulu put the ball into the back of his own net, under no real pressure.
Pep Guardiola's side then cruised towards victory in the second half, as Erling Haaland scored his 300th career goal, before Phil Foden scored from close range to make it 4-1.
Savinho then scored the pick of the bunch with a wonderful curling effort off the crossbar, as City scored a fifth goal.

What happens if they draw?
As things stand, both sides have six points, and eight goal difference, so are split on the barest of margins.
Juventus lead the group, as their nine goals scored trumps Man City's eight, and hold the advantage before the game tonight.
Should the sides draw, nothing will change, Juventus will win the group.

City team news

Here is how the full team looks...

Rodri is BACK
Rodri is BACK into the starting XI for Man City for the first time since his ACL injury last year.
The Spanish midfielder missed almost the entire season for City after getting injured, making his return in a seven minute cameo against Bournemouth at the end of the season.
The Ballon d'Or winner slots into the heart of midfield tonight, having already played little under an hour in the Club World Cup in substitute cameos.
Tonight will be his first start since Man City's 2-2 draw with Arsenal at the Etihad in September last year.

Early payout: Bookies can offer early payouts in different matches, for example if a player wins a certain number of sets. Money back: Players can get money back on losing bets in some circumstances. This may take the form of free bets if your original wager loses. Cashback: In a similar vein to money back, cash back offers may come in the form of money back on a percentage of the bets you make over a week or month. Profit boost tokens: As with odds boosts, profit boosts may be given to players ahead of making certain bets. Bet and get free spins: As well as Wimbledon free bets, bookies might offer free spins as a reward fore wagering on Wimbledon. Bettors should always practice responsible gambling. When using gambling sites be aware that sports betting can be addictive. Please take steps to remain in control of your time and budget. The same applies whether you're using new betting sites, slot sites, casino sites, casino apps, betting apps, or any other gambling medium. Even the most knowledgeable punter can lose a bet, so always stick to a budget and never chase your losses. It's particularly important not to get carried away by any free bets or casino offers you might receive, both of which are available in abundance on gambling sites, but must be approached with caution. You can stay in control by making use of the responsible gambling tools offered, such as deposit limits, loss limits, self-exclusion and time-outs.

Nick Kyrgios 'lands eye-catching new role at Wimbledon' weeks after being dropped by the BBC and hitting out at decision as 'very strange'
Nick Kyrgios has reportedly landed a new role at Wimbledon after being dropped from the BBC 's coverage and branding the decision 'very strange'. Kyrgios looked set to miss out on SW19 despite being part of the BBC's punditry team for last year's tournament, alongside Tim Henman and John McEnroe. The broadcaster's decision to include the Australian on the panel 12 months after he admitted to assaulting his former girlfriend Chiara Passari - and avoided a criminal conviction - was met with a fierce backlash from the public and MPs. Disrupted by knee and wrist injuries, the 30-year-old will not be involved as a player, making this the third consecutive year he has missed out. His last appearance on the court at Wimbledon came in 2022, when he lost the final to Novak Djokovic. Kyrgios was also overlooked by ESPN this year despite featuring on their panel at the Australian Open, and previously worked for the Tennis Channel and TNT Sports. However, he will now be at Wimbledon after all after landing an eye-catching new media role with talkSPORT, according to The Times. He is said to be joining the radio station to record a daily half-hour show alongside co-presenter Gordon Smart. Kyrgios will also make appearances alongside Jim White and Simon Jordan in the morning across the fortnight. Before his new job became public, Kyrgios had taken a thinly-veiled dig at his rumoured BBC replacement - only for him to shoot down the speculation. Kyrgios claimed that Christopher Eubanks, the world No 108, had been lined up and after beating each member of the 'Big Four' - Roger Feder, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray - he expressed his bemusement with the move. 'It's unfortunate but it's probably their loss more than mine,' he told The Guardian. 'I understand they've got Chris Eubanks, but he hasn't beaten the greatest of all time multiple times. When someone's beaten Federer, Nadal, Murray and Djokovic and has incredible insights, it's very strange you wouldn't want them adding knowledge.' Eubanks himself took to social media to insist he would not be working with the BBC. 'As far as I know, my team hasn't even spoken to anyone from [the] BBC so I'm not sure where that came from,' the 29-year-old said on X. Kyrgios made an appearance on talkSPORT on Thursday and shared his sympathy for Emma Raducanu, declaring his 'heart does go out to her'. 'I look at that run [at the US Open in 2021],' he said. 'She was smiling and enjoying her tennis so much and that whole two weeks for her was an incredible journey. 'But since then, I've seen her kind of enjoy her tennis, but I've never really seen her smile and really enjoy it as she did when she won the tournament. 'Whether or not that it's external pressure, I don't know what's going on, but at the end of the day, we play sport because we love it and we go out there because we want to compete and entertain people. 'I hope that she figures out what's wrong and what's going on there, I hope she finds the answers, but I completely understand.'

Juventus 2-5 Man City - the fans' verdict
We asked for your thoughts after Thursday's Club World Cup game between Juventus and Manchester are some of your comments:Franek: Oh, a lovely game to watch! Five-star. Bit of a sloppy way to score your 300th career goal, Erling Haaland, but every one of them counts. And, Savinho! Whew, that ball went faster than my eyes following it. Crossbar goals are always lovely ones! The pick of the bunch!Kim: One of the best Manchester City performances I've seen in a while. Playing with so much freedom and energy, especially in the box. A refreshing change. Great City are definitely back after this Man City played like the City of old - I think that we are on the way To say City are back is a cliche. They are in transition and hopefully will get better, faster and more confident. This Club World Cup should help bond the team more than any friendly matches Good game, great performance. But Man City need to buy a young and dynamic goalkeeper this summer. Ederson is no longer 100 per cent reliable with those same mistakes since from last season. And we need a right-back as a permanent replacement for Kyle Expected a much better game, but City dominated from the start bar the Ederson hiccup. Rayan Ait-Nouri is a solid player, Jeremy Doku continues to impress while Manuel Akanji and Luis Diaz played well together. Erling Haaland makes a difference up front as Omar Marmoush is an exciting player but isn't the big body in the middle. Overall, an impressive performance by the third different line-up of the tournament.
