Bayern Munich Leads Group C, Faces Boca Juniors in 2025 Club World Cup

Bayern Munich began the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup group stage with a record-breaking 10-0 win over Auckland City, positioning themselves as clear favorites in Group C. They are set to face Argentina’s Boca Juniors at Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium, with the match carrying high stakes as a Bayern win would secure their knockout stage qualification, while Boca must win to stay in contention. Boca Juniors, who drew 2-2 against Benfica in their opener, face additional challenges after two players received four-match suspensions following red cards. The upcoming match also recalls the controversial 2001 Intercontinental Cup final between these clubs, where Boca felt aggrieved by refereeing decisions that favored Bayern. Fans can watch the eagerly anticipated match on DAZN and Al Jazeera Sport, with kickoff scheduled for late Friday evening into early Saturday morning. The encounter promises to be a fiercely contested battle, blending historical rivalry with current tournament pressures.
