Phil Foden inspired defending champions Manchester City to victory over Moroccan side Wydad Casablanca in their Fifa Club World Cup opener in Philadelphia.
The Premier League side had seen fellow European heavyweights Paris St-Germain, Bayern Munich and Chelsea all record victories in their first games and made no mistake themselves against the north African side, helped by Foden's return to form with a goal and assist.
