Ghanaian international, Samuel Obeng Gyabaa was in action for Wydad Athletic Club in their opening game against Manchester City in the ongoing FIFA Club World Cup tournament
The Cityzens weren't really at their best on the day but managed to record a 2-0 victory over the Red Castles in what was a very crunchy encounter at the Lincoln Field in the opening game of Group F
English international Phil Foden opened the scoring for the Sky-Blues in just two minutes from kickoff with a close range tap-in after goalkeeper El Mehdi Benabid failed to parry away properly a Savinho cross from the left
With three minutes to half-time, Jeremy Doku connected a Foden corner kick with a scorpion kick and that's how the score stayed as no goal was produced in the second half
Obeng Gyabaa came on in the 62nd minute to replace experienced Nordin Amrabat and tried with a huge press upfield on the City backline but still couldn't make any significant changes as they got off a poor start and will look to make amends in their next game
The former Black Meteors forward joined the Moroccan giants in February this year from Portuguese topflight side Casa Pia FC
They will face Juventus in their next game on Sunday, June 22, at the same Lincoln Field
