10:02am, 28 June 2025【Football】

June 24th, two European giants in the Club World Cup Group G, Juventus and Manchester City have advanced to the top 16 ahead of schedule, but the competition for the top spot in the group has not yet ended. Currently, the two teams have 6 points together, Juventus is temporarily ranked first due to the advantage of the number of goals. The two sides will directly fight in the final round, and the winner will become the first in the group. The key to this game is the situation of the knockout match. According to the competition system, Group G will play Group H second in the 1/8 finals, while Group G second may encounter Group H first. Real Madrid currently leads the H Group, so if Manchester City or Juventus qualifies as second in the group, it is likely to face Real Madrid in advance in the next round, which is obviously not what the two teams want to see. The situation in Group H is also full of suspense. Real Madrid currently ranks first with 4 points, but Red Bull Salzburg followed closely with 4 points, and the two teams will face each other directly in the final round. If Real Madrid fails to win, they may even fall to second place in the group, which will also affect the knockout opponents of the teams qualifying in Group G.

Manchester City must defeat Juventus in the final round to ensure first place in the group, and Juventus only needs to remain unbeaten to lock in the top spot. This competition is not only a competition for group rankings, but also may affect the prospects of the two teams' Club World Cup advancement. Who can occupy a more favorable position will soon be known.
