UAE football powerhouse Al Ain FC, nicknamed “The Boss” came to an abrupt end following two heavy defeats in FIFA Club World Cup 2025 Group G — a 0-5 loss to Juventus and a 0-6 thrashing by Manchester City.
The 0-6 defeat to Manchester City now stands as Al Ain’s heaviest defeat ever, surpassing even the 0-5 loss to Juventus.
Both score lines set unwanted records for a club founded in 1968 and long regarded as UAE’s most decorated football team.
