Defending champions Manchester City were knocked out of the Club World Cup at the last 16 stage after being stunned in extra time by Saudi Arabia side Al-Hilal following an incredible seven-goal thriller.
Pep Guardiola’s side had come through the group stages unscathed but failed to reach the quarter-finals after conceding four times in a haphazard defensive display.
FT: Man City 3-4 Al-Hilal
Manchester City attempted 30 shots, 14 on target – but only scored three of them.
