Man City Score 6-0 Al Ain, Guardiola Praises Debutants in Club World Cup

News summary

Manchester City delivered a dominant 6-0 victory over Al-Ain at the Club World Cup, with teenage midfielder Claudio Echeverri scoring a remarkable free-kick on his first start, a goal that manager Pep Guardiola praised as the result of dedicated practice. Guardiola highlighted Echeverri's talent in tight spaces and noted that the player had to leave at halftime due to an ankle issue. New signing Rayan Ait-Nouri also impressed in his debut, with Guardiola commending his defensive intelligence and adaptability, particularly his ability to play in both defense and midfield roles. Despite the comprehensive win, Guardiola expressed disappointment that City missed the chance to secure top spot in Group G by just one goal, which would have helped avoid a tougher knockout round opponent like Real Madrid. The manager also provided an update on Rodri's gradual comeback from an ACL injury, acknowledging the midfielder's ongoing physical challenges but emphasizing his importance to the team. City now prepare to face Juventus in their final group game, aiming to finish first and improve their path in the tournament.
