Juventus vs Man City: Club World Cup Result & Round of 16 Qualification

Of
Massimiliano Nerozzi, sent to Orlando

After the first two convincing victories, Tudor’s team returns to Earth, dominated by the British after the momentary 1-1 of Koopmeiners

To a fan of the City It will seem to be in Disney World, half an hour’s car from Orlando, not at the stadium, for the challenge to Juve: the team of Pep Guardiola In fact, he dominated and amused (his faithful, of course), as if it were a summer performance, because the score was a formality, which would have adjusted over time. To say, at a certain point, the feeling was as a bullet, while on the stands they already celebrated. In short, there was only left in the first quarter of an hour, when Madama had impactful the instantaneous advantage of Tissuethanks to a gift of Ederson a Shoppers. Then, a festival (of the goal) or a disaster, depends on the points of view.

Moral: Juve downsized, as was among the risks, of Fronta to a terrible opponent, after walking with softer enemies. Nothing irremediable, Even if in the round of 16, in Miami, the winner of the Royal group, Tuesday. That will be decided in the night, but which should be the Blanca house. “Where there is water there is an alligator,” they repeat in Florida, and at the Camping World Stadium there were one (rain) and the others (English players). Compared to the last game, Guardiola changes seven, Tudor Cinque, in view of the heat (33 degrees, acceptable from the rain). In front, nothing haaland, but marmoush, one meter and 83 for 80 kilos (to 75 million euros): it has long been the center forward that is no longer the “space”. The City goes from a phase of great construction (on goals) to one of depressing destruction (from below): first, perfect imbucata of a-nouri for Doku, and 1-0; Then Gaffe di Ederson, which sets directly on the feet of Koop that draws, with two steps and diagonal in the race.

English domain

As usual, Manchester requested the game, so much so that in half an hour, for the anti-caldo pit stop, telemetry is almost 11 against zero: 77 percent of possession (ditto at the interval), 250 steps against 70. After that, the British go to the destination because Madama makes the favor, with grotesque headquarters of Kalulu who, of shank, supports on the goal. However, it is one of those cases in which, paraphrasing Pasteur, luck helps the prepared teams: the City was hammering the black and white defense and the French harakiri had arrived in the middle of a screaming action, between filtering (of Savine) and low cross (of Nunes). Flood (and not only weather) in the 41st minute, just as of Gregorio Leva from the corner on 3-1 (a-nouri diagonalone). Paratissimo also on the end of time, on Marmoush. Juve, among a sample of horrors, also had to make serious technical errors during the reconquest, which prevented her from leaving the constant pressure of the City.

If the inertia of the American afternoon was already one-way, the score became, in a handful of minutes, when Haaland threw inside the 3-1 (seasonal goal number 33), from the terminal of another fantastic combination in PEP mode: Savinho deep for Nunes, and assists in the middle for the touch of the Norwegian. City Model Globetrotters also later, thanks to Deluxe changes, from Gundogan to Foden, with the audience that made the Ola.
