New club world cup champions!
Barcelona
Barcelona are the new Club World Cup champions after beating the Argentine Club River Plate 3-0 in Yokohama, Japan today.
Lionel Messi and Neymar Jr returned from injury to ensure that the Spanish giants racked up their fifth trophy this year. While Neymar did not score a goal himself, his presence was notable as he created many chances. Messi opened the scoring and Luis Suárez finished off River Plate with two more goals.
Barcelona thereby became the only club to win three times.
