Al Ain finish Club World Cup on high note with Wydad win

Although both Al Ain and Wydad Casablanca were already eliminated, both battled hard to finish on a high note. Moroccan side Wydad have enjoyed strong support at the tournament and delighted their fans with a fourth minute opener.

South African striker Cassius Mailula blasted home at the near post to put them in front at Audi Field in Washington, DC.

Togo international Kodjo Fo-Doh Laba levelled from the spot just before the break for Al Ain, with their first goal of the tournament after 5-0 and 6-0 thrashings by Juve and Man City respectively.

Paraguayan international Alejandro Romero curled home from the edge of the box to earn the team from the United Arab Emirates victory.

"I'm so happy for scoring and helping my team-mates... it's been a good experience, a difficult group, but competing until the end is good for Al Ain," said Romero.
