Man City win FIFA Club World Cup for first time

Manchester City have become the fourth English team to win FIFA's Club World Cup after a 4-0 win over Brazilian side Fluminense.

Julian Alvarez opened the scoring in the second minute before an own goal, a strike from Phil Foden, and a second late on from Alvarez secured a comprehensive victory.

City follow rivals Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool in winning the competition.

They've now won the Premier League, FA Cup, Champions League, UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup in 2023.

Pep Guardiola's side qualified courtesy of their victory in the Champions League, and reached Friday's final after a 4-2 win over Japanese team Urawa Red Diamonds in the semis.

Fluminense qualified for the competition after winning South America's Copa Libertadores.

The match took place in the Saudi city of Jeddah, with the Sky Blues playing without striker Erling Haaland, who's injured and watched from the sidelines.

It's Guardiola's fourth Club World Cup win - and he'll be hoping a second-half injury to midfielder Rodri is nothing serious.
