Juventus delivered a huge blow to Manchester City’s Champions League ambitions with a commanding 2-0 win in Turin. Dusan Vlahovic opened the scoring early in the second half, heading home a superb cross from Kenan Yildiz to put the hosts 1-0 up. Weston McKennie sealed the victory a quarter of an hour later, converting a fast break into a clinical finish past City goalkeeper Ederson.
The result marks a further setback for Pep Guardiola’s side, who have now managed just one win in their last 10 games across all competitions. With only two matches remaining in the group stage, City, currently on 8 points, are in danger of failing to progress to the knockout stages. Juventus, with 11 points from six games, are in a much stronger position, having shown resilience despite a challenging Serie A campaign.

With two games left to play, Guardiola’s men will need a dramatic turnaround to ensure their place in the next stage of Europe’s premier competition.
