Juventus outclassed Wydad Casablanca 4-1 in a FIFA Club World Cup Group G match played at the Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia on Sunday evening.
The Bianconeris win has pushed the Moroccan side to the brink of elimination if Manchester City avoid defeat in their match against Al Ain in the early hours of Monday morning, then the Red Castle will have no mathematical chance of progression to the knockout phase of the competition.
Juventus powered into a 2-0 lead within the first 16 minutes of the match, with Kenan Yildiz involved in both goals.
The Turkish attacker exchanged passes with Khephren Thuram in the sixth minute before his low shot from the left of the penalty area was deflected into the back of the net by Wydad defender Abdelmounaim Boutouil who was then credited with an own goal.
Ten minutes later Andrea Cambiaso went on a powerful run, cutting inside from the left, and a resulting loose ball fell perfectly for Yildiz on the edge of the box the 20-year-old struck a beautiful half-volley into the top corner of the net for 2-0.
