Bayern Munich made a powerful start to the 2025 Club World Cup, as the German giants secured a resounding 10-0 victory over their New Zealand opponents, Auckland City. The match took place on Sunday as part of Group C fixtures.
The game witnessed a flurry of goals, with several players contributing to the Bavarians’ tally: Kingsley Coman (6th and 22nd minutes), Sacha Boey (18th), Michael Olise (20th and 45+3), Thomas Müller (45th and 89th), and Jamal Musiala, who netted a hat-trick (67th, 73rd, and 84th minutes). This devastating offensive display clearly reflects the team’s readiness under the guidance of their Belgian coach, Vincent Kompany.
This record-setting result marks the best possible opening for Bayern in the global tournament, ahead of tougher challenges against Argentina’s Boca Juniors on 21 June, followed by Portugal’s Benfica on 23 June, both within the same group
