Bayern sweeps Auckland City 10-0 – Musiala scores a hat trick!

The football world saw real fireworks in Cincinnati yesterday! FC Bayern Munich sent a clear message in the opening game of the FIFA Club World Cup against Auckland City and won 10-0. With this result, Bayern recorded the biggest victory in the history of the tournament. 21,152 spectators watched the spectacle in the stands of the TQL Stadium.

Bayern opened the goal festival in the 6th minute with Kingsley Coman. The Frenchman, who is off to a rapid start to the season, paved the way for further goals. In the first half, Sacha Boey (18th), Michael Olise (20th and 45th + 3) and Thomas Müller (44th) also got on the scoresheet before the break went into the break with a comfortable 6-0.

Musiala shows great comeback

Jamal Musiala, who came on as a substitute in the second half after suffering a muscle injury, caused particular excitement. With a hat-trick in just 16 minutes - including a goal from play, a penalty and a goal after a mistake by goalkeeper Conor Tracey - he impressively demonstrated that he can urgently help his team in the knockout phase. Thomas Müller also got on the scoresheet with his second goal in the 89th minute.

Although Auckland City had some promising chances - including a powerful shot from Harry Kane that was brilliantly saved by Manuel Neuer - they were unable to counter Bayern's offensive fireworks. The Munich team has sent a clear message to the competition, especially since they will face Boca Juniors in the next preliminary round game.

Bavaria on the road to success

Coach Vincent Kompany's team appeared serious and well prepared for the tournament. After the game, Kompany emphasized the importance of the group phase and was already looking at possible opponents in the knockout phase such as PSG or Real Madrid. Its new concept and the substitution of talents like Jonathan Tah and Lennart Karl, both of whom made their debuts, show that FC Bayern doesn't just rely on established players.

Whatever the outcome of the next games, one thing is clear: Bayern are pulling out all the stops and are determined to win the title again after winning the trophy in 2020. This series of great performances in the FIFA Club World Cup, which was launched in 2000 and plays an important role in European football history, is impressive. An exciting opening game that leaves you longing for more!
