Cincinnati, USA — June 15, 2025
Bayern Munich announced their arrival at the expanded FIFA Club World Cup 2025 in jaw-dropping fashion, dismantling New Zealand’s Auckland City FC with a record-breaking 10–0 victory. It was a statement performance from Vincent Kompany’s men, combining surgical precision with relentless attacking firepower.
First-Half Firestorm
The floodgates opened early as Bayern swarmed Auckland with speed, width, and clinical finishing. Within the first 30 minutes, the German giants had already netted four times.
Kingsley Coman struck first in the 6th minute, followed by a powerful finish from Sacha Boey — his first goal for the club. The creative spark of Michael Olise was on full display, scoring twice before halftime, one of which came from a sublime free-kick. Thomas Müller, always in the right place at the right time, added another just before the break to make it 6–0 at halftime.
Musiala’s Magic Off the Bench
As if things couldn’t get worse for Auckland, Jamal Musiala entered in the 61st minute and completely took over. The young star scored a hat-trick in just 17 minutes, including a composed penalty and two silky finishes that left defenders flat-footed. Müller capped off the onslaught with his second goal late in the game, bringing the final score to 10–0.

Record-Breaking Night

It’s also Bayern’s first official match under new head coach Vincent Kompany, who has quickly made his presence felt with bold, attacking football and high pressing from the front.
After the match, Kompany praised his squad’s hunger and focus:
“I told the players to respect the opponent and play our football. We did that for 90 minutes — no shortcuts. This is the standard we expect every time we wear the Bayern badge.”
He also applauded Auckland City’s spirit:
“They showed real heart. It’s not easy at this level, but they gave everything and earned our respect.”
Auckland’s Brave Fight
Despite being outclassed, the semi-professional team from Oceania earned admiration for their effort and composure. Some players had only recently arrived in the U.S., juggling day jobs and football. Their sportsmanship was recognized with applause from the Cincinnati crowd and a symbolic post-match jersey exchange with Bayern players.
What’s Next for Bayern?
With three points and a +10 goal difference, Bayern sit firmly atop Group C. They’ll face tougher tests ahead, but this opening result sends a message to the rest of the competition: Bayern mean business.
