Juventus 4-1 Wydad AC, FIFA Club World Cup 2025: Yildiz Masterclass Leads Bianconeri To Victory

Juventus secured their position at the top of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 Group G after defeating Moroccan side Wydad AC in the second matchday fixture at the Lincoln Financial Field on 22 June 2025. Kenan Yildiz delivered a world-class performance, forcing the opener after a brilliant run. His effort deflected off Abdelmounaim Boutouil and beat El Mehdi Benabid, ultimately going down as an own goal by the Wydad defender. Yildiz did get his goal in the 16th minute, shooting from outside the box to find the top right corner. Wydad responded well, with Thembinkosi Lorch scoring in the 25th minute. However, Juventus바카라™ attack proved too much for the African side, as a good cut-back from Randal Kolo Muani was slotted home by Yildiz to complete his brace in the 69th minute, before substitute Dusan Vlahovic scored from the spot in the 94th minute to seal the match for the Italian giants.
