Claudio Echeverri ‘a bit sore' as Man City wait on teenager's ankle injury

The 19-year-old revelled in an attacking role and scored from a free-kick as City thrashed Al Ain of Abu Dhabi 6-0 in Atlanta to secure their place in the last 16 of the Club World Cup. Yet the Argentinian, who only made his debut in the FA Cup final last month after arriving from River Plate in January, was forced off at half-time with a twisted ankle. A stunning free-kick from Echeverri as he nets his first City goal 🌟#FIFACWC | LIVE on — Manchester City (@ManCity) June 23, 2025 It was a disappointing end to a promising performance and one that suggested the youngster could have a role to play in Guardiola's reshaped squad in the coming season. Guardiola said Echeverri was 'a little bit sore' and had to be replaced at the interval. The City boss said: 'That's why he could not continue, but he's an incredible player – a big, big talent in small spaces – and I'm happy for him.' Guardiola went on to praise Echeverri's work ethic and dedication. He said: 'Since he arrived, in the three or four months with us, at the end of training sessions he was practising free-kicks with the goalkeeper, the wall and alone. The other ones did not practise. 'He was practising and practising and the work pays off at the end. The more you practise, the more chances you have. It was a fantastic goal.' Echeverri made his City debut in the FA Cup final (Nick Potts/PA) Goalkeeper Stefan Ortega was also impressed by Echeverri's performance, comparing him to another Argentinian forward in former City player and World Cup-winner Julian Alvarez. Ortega, who took the place of Ederson as Guardiola made 11 changes for the second Group G game, said: 'He is a good (free-kick) taker. He saw the gap in the wall and used it. 'He reminds me a bit of Julian Alvarez, same type of player, his finishing is incredible. 'He's a really good guy, a bit shy in the beginning but I think he can help us a lot.' Another player to catch the eye in City's stroll was left-back Rayan Ait-Nouri, who was handed his debut following his £31million move from Wolves earlier this month. Rayan Ait-Nouri also shone on his City debut (Brynn Anderson/AP) Guardiola said: 'Wow. He had to defend in a back four, then make it a back five and he played really, really good. 'It's not for the first time. It was his first (City) game but he has played in the Premier League for many years. 'He can help us play in that role outside but then had to play as a holding midfielder. 'He is so clever in the final third, taking the right decisions to create more spaces. I'm really pleased for the game he played.'

Rangers chief insists club must 'stick up for themselves'

The Ibrox club were fined £3,000 by the Scottish FA last week after John Brown's commentary during the match against Hibs in May. Brown suggested the Scottish game was 'corrupt' following a disallowed goal by Nicolas Raskin at Easter Road. In response, Rangers released a strongly-worded statement pointing out inconsistencies in the SFA's judgements in past cases. The governing body dismissed these claims. The club also vowed to closely monitor similar instances from other club TV channels. Cavenagh, head of the new US consortium, said at the Glasgow city centre EGM: "You have got to stick up for the club." CEO Patrick Stewart pointed out that it was the club, not Brown, who were fined for his comments. He reiterated that he felt the SFA were 'inconsistent' but stressed the importance of maintaining a 'working relationship' with them. Fraser Thornton, the chairman, said: "We have representation on every SPFL committee. "Andrew and Paraag are off to meet the SPFL tomorrow." Rangers' statements and actions indicate their intent to continue challenging what they perceive as unfair treatment by the SFA.

Delacroix pencilled in to join Camille Pissarro at Sandown

Winner of two key Derby trials at Leopardstown prior to Epsom, he failed to land a blow on the big day behind his stablemate Lambourn but has been cut to 10-1 by Coral for the 10-furlong Esher showpiece. He will now drop back in tip at Sandown and run alongside French Derby winner Camille Pissarro, although the race is likely to come too quickly for another stablemate, Trinity College, who won the King Edward VII Stakes at Ascot last week. 'The Eclipse will probably come a bit quick for Trinity College so we're probably thinking of letting Delacroix take that slot along with Camille, that's what we're thinking,' O'Brien told the Nick Luck Daily podcast. 'Trinity looks like he's a Group One horse now, but when the others are there the timing means it fits in a little bit better for them. 'Don't rule out Trinity yet, but I'd imagine it will be the other two instead of him.'
