Manchester City dominated the Juventus club World Cup and got the group victory. Erling Haaland scored a special goal.
At 5: 2 (2: 1) Haaland first sat on the replacement bench. From there he watched Jeremy Doku gave his team early (9th) before Tun Koopmeiners equalized (11th). At the break, the “Citizens” led without their scorer: Turin’s defender Pierre Kalulu met – but he hit his own goal (26th).
Haaland, 24, is only Joker – then he scores the 300th goal of his career
At that time it had already started to rain heavily at the Florida venue. Manchester City, now with Haaland for the ex-Bundesliga player Omar Marmoush, was not irritated by this. Seven minutes after his substitution, Haaland found himself relatively undisturbed in the opposing penalty area. He came to the ball six meters in front of the goal, which he did not really hit. But in the end he rolled over the goal line.
It was the 300th goal in the career of the Norwegian Haaland, you take all goals in club games and that for Norway’s national team. As a reminder: Haaland is still only 24 years old.
Foden and Savinho make it clear
Phil Foden (69.) and Savinho (75th) ensured a significant success of Manchester City with their goals. The reward: a comparatively light lot for the round of 16. There the team of Pep Guardiola meets Al-Hilal from Saudi Arabia.
For Juventus, who was qualified for the round of 16 before the kick -off, Dusan Vlahovic (84th) scored shortly before the end. In the next round Juve meets Real Madrid.
