Japanese side Urawa Reds secured fifth place at the FIFA Club World Cup UAE 2017 with a 3-2 win over Wydad Casablanca on Tuesday and it was this scorcher from Mauricio Antonio that opened the scoring for them.
The Brazilian defender’s long-range effort proved a highlight on a night that saw him net a brace at the Hazza bin Zayed Stadium in Al Ain.
“I’m delighted to have scored twice today, but I’m even happier with our win,” Antonio told Fifa.com after the match for fifth place. “Those two goals were fantastic, though. I’m used to scoring with my head, but sometimes I try my luck with my feet. And today it worked… twice!
