Bayern Munich Hit 10 Past Auckland City in Club World Cup Record Win

Bayern Munich Score Record 10 Against Amateurs Auckland City

Bayern Munich made a statement at the 2025 Club World Cup by thrashing Auckland City 10-0 in Cincinnati, marking the largest victory in the tournament’s history.

The Bundesliga giants were in a league of their own against the part-timers from New Zealand, with Jamal Musiala netting a hat-trick and Thomas Müller scoring twice as part of his farewell campaign with Bayern.

How the Goals Fell

• 6’ – Kingsley Coman opened the floodgates with a sharp header.

• 18’ – Sacha Boey volleyed in Coman’s assist.

• 23’ – Michael Olise made it 3-0 with a far-post finish.

• **24’ – Coman struck again with a powerful left-footed drive.

• **35’ – Müller tapped in Olise’s cross for Bayern’s fifth.

• **42’ – Olise curled in Bayern’s sixth just before half-time.

• **51’ – Musiala found the bottom corner after coming off the bench.

• **67’ – Musiala converted from the penalty spot.

• **74’ – Musiala completed his hat-trick on a loose ball.

• **88’ – Müller capped off the night, finishing from Serge Gnabry’s cross.

The previous Club World Cup record win was Al Hilal’s 6-1 rout of Al Jazira in 2022—Bayern now own the new high.

Kompany Era Begins with a Bang

This was Vincent Kompany’s first competitive match in charge of Bayern Munich, and the Belgian manager couldn’t have asked for a more dominant display. Musiala’s return from injury, Olise’s debut goal, and a vintage Müller performance showcased both present quality and future promise.

Amateurs Overwhelmed in Professional Arena

Auckland City, featuring a squad of students, estate agents, and part-time workers, were never expected to mount a serious challenge against the 34-time German champions.

While they earned their place by winning the Oceania Champions League, the gulf in quality raised fresh doubts about the Club World Cup’s expanded format.

Only a string of saves by goalkeeper Conor Tracey prevented an even greater scoreline.

Key Talking Point: Format Under Fire Again

The 32-team expansion of the Club World Cup has already triggered legal action from FIFPRO and the World Leagues Association, citing player fatigue and lack of consultation.

This match may fuel criticism further, highlighting the competitive imbalance when elite European clubs face semi-professional sides in the early stages.

What’s Next?

Bayern now look ahead to tougher challenges in the tournament, but their opening demolition job sends a clear message: they’re not just here to participate—they’re here to dominate.
