Bayern Munich Achieves Record 10-0 Club World Cup Win Over Auckland City

Bayern Munich recorded a historic 10-0 victory over Auckland City in their opening match of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, marking the largest margin of victory in the tournament's history. The German champions dominated from start to finish, with Kingsley Coman scoring twice early, followed by goals from Sacha Boey, Michael Olise, and Thomas Müller, who is playing his final tournament for Bayern. Jamal Musiala came off the bench to complete a second-half hat-trick, including a penalty, further extending Bayern's lead. Auckland City, a semi-professional side whose players took leave from their jobs to participate, struggled against Bayern’s high pressing and quality, reflecting the vast gulf between the two teams. Bayern coach Vincent Kompany emphasized the importance of taking the match seriously while acknowledging that tougher challenges lie ahead. This result set the tone for Bayern’s campaign in a group also featuring Boca Juniors and Benfica, while Auckland City will continue in the tournament despite the heavy defeat.
