Man City dispatch Urawa Red Diamonds to cruise into Club World Cup final

19.12.2023 - 21:00 rte.ie

Manchester City 3-0 Urawa Red Diamonds Manchester City eased into the final of the Club World Cup with a comfortable 3-0 win over Japanese side Urawa Red Diamonds on Tuesday.

Without Erling Haaland, the Champions League winners needed an own goal to launch their campaign in Saudi Arabia but second-half strikes from Mateo Kovavic and Bernardo Silva saw them stroll to victory.

Having already added the European Super Cup to last season's treble, City will now have the chance to claim a fifth trophy of the calendar year when they face Brazil's Fluminese in Friday's final in Jeddah.

With Urawa showing limited ambition against City's formidable line-up, the only surprise was the game remained goalless until first-half stoppage time.
