Bayern Munich delivered a record-breaking performance against Auckland City in the opening match of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup at TQL Stadium in Cincinnati, demolishing the Oceania champions 10–0. This result not only marked the biggest win in Club World Cup history but also set a new tournament record for the most goals scored in a single match. The German giants showcased their superiority from the start, with Kingsley Coman opening the scoring in the 6th minute before adding a second in the 21st. Bayern’s dominance continued with goals from Sacha Boey, Michael Olise, and a Thomas Müller brace. Jamal Musiala stole the spotlight in the second half, coming off the bench to score a clinical hat-trick.
Despite being a semi-professional side, Auckland City showed early resilience but eventually collapsed under relentless pressure from Bayern’s high press and sharp transitions. The European champions controlled 72% of possession, fired 31 shots (17 on target), and never let their opponents settle into the game. The match also featured notable debuts, including 17-year-old Lennart Karl, who impressed with a confident 45-minute showing, and Jonathan Tah, who returned from injury alongside Dayot Upamecano.
The win served as a statement of intent from Bayern Munich, who now prepare to face Boca Juniors and Benfica in Group C. For Auckland City, the result was a harsh lesson in the gulf between footballing tiers, but also a moment of pride to share the pitch with one of the world’s elite clubs.
