Juve delivered a commanding performance at Lincoln Financial Field, dismantling Moroccan champions Wydad Casablanca 4-1 to secure their second consecutive win at the FIFA Club World Cup 2025. With this result, the Bianconeri sit atop Group G with six points, edging closer to a spot in the knockout stages.
Match Summary
Juventus wasted no time asserting their dominance. In the 6th minute, a low-driven shot from Kenan Yildiz deflected off Wydad defender Abdelmounaim Boutouil and trickled into the net for an own goal. Just ten minutes later, Yildiz doubled the lead with a thunderous strike from the edge of the box that left goalkeeper Mehdi Benabid rooted to the spot1.
Wydad responded in the 25th minute through Thembinkosi Lorch, who latched onto a clever through ball from Nordin Amrabat and calmly slotted past Michele Di Gregorio to make it 2-1. The Moroccan side showed flashes of promise but couldn’t match Juve’s intensity and precision.
In the second half, Juventus regained full control. Yildiz struck again in the 69th minute, finishing off a slick move involving Randal Kolo Muani to restore the two-goal cushion. Substitute Dusan Vlahovic then sealed the win in stoppage time, converting a penalty after being brought down by Guilherme Ferreira
