Bayern Munich vs Flamengo live: Latest team news as Europe and South America clash at Club World Cup | OneFootball

Jorginho aware of 'difficult' Bayern Munich challenge as Flamengo advance

Bayern Munich and Flamengo meet for a place in the Club World Cup quarter-finals in a clash between two of Europe and South America’s best.

Brazilian giants Flamengo, the Copa Libertadores champions in 2021, have already claimed one scalp this tournament by beating Chelsea in the group stages.

They were rather unlucky to draw five-time European champions Bayern Munich, who finished runners-up in their pool after falling to a defeat against Benfica in their final group game.

A place in the quarter-finals, and against either Paris Saint-Germain or Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami, awaits the winners of this knockout stage match in Miami.

‘It’s a joke’: Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca rages at two-hour weather delay at Club World Cup

Yesterday’s round of 16 clash between Chelsea and Benfica - the two other sides that progressed from Flamengo and Bayern Munich’s respective groups - was marred by a two-hour weather day that dragged out the contest late into the night.

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca called the delay that disrupted his team’s Club World Cup win a “joke” and “not football”.

"For me personally, it's not football," Maresca told a press conference at around 2am local time in Charlotte. "I think it's a joke. It's not football.

"I can understand that for security reasons, you have to suspend the game. But if you suspend seven or eight games, that means that probably this is not the right place to do this competition.”

The biggest Club World Cup question is still unanswered – does anyone care?

There is the £1bn broadcasting deal, the £97m prize for the winners, the guarantee of a minimum of over £30m in revenue for the Premier League participants. There is the possibility of the kind of windfall that could bring domestic dominance for a club from outside Europe. There is the potential reward of cracking America, as everyone looks to build their brand.

In a sense, though, the Club World Cup depends upon a different kind of investment. Whatever the big financial figures, it needs buy-in: not from Fifa’s partners but from the part of the footballing family who are rarely consulted, the fans.

The Club World Cup is in a battle for hearts and minds and eyeballs. It is a matter if – and it is too early to draw definitive conclusions – people buy into it; if they invest their time, their hopes and their emotions.

Thomas Muller rejects complaints over heat at Club World Cup: ‘No excuses’

Thomas Muller has rejected complaints of “impossible” heat at the Club World Cup, citing his own age as a reason why younger players should have “no excuses”.

“We have to be in shape,” he said. “If an almost 36-year-old guy like me can run 90 minutes, then everybody should do it, so no excuses.”

How Bayern Munich reached the knockouts

Bayern Munich appeared to stamp their mark as a team that will take no prisoners in this inaugural Club World Cup when they hit double digits in a 10-0 thrashing of Auckland City. However, the Bavarians have slightly faltered since that ruthless opener.

They stumbled to a 2-1 win over Boca Juniors, requiring a late winner from Michael Olise to get them over the line against the Argentinians, before losing 1-0 to Benfica in their final group game to forfeit top spot.

How Flamengo reached the knockouts

Flamengo are among just a handful of teams still in contention that are flying the flag for non-European football in the Club World Cup.

The Brazilian giants are yet to be defeated in the competition, beating ES Tunis 2-0 before a six-minute Chelsea capitulation saw Flamengo stun the Blues in a 3-1 victory.

With a place in the knockouts already locked up, they drew with LAFC 1-1 to top the group - something that may prove their downfall having ended up with a harder opponent in the last 16.

While Flamengo will have to battle past German titans Bayern Munich to keep their Club World Cup hopes alive, Group D runners-up Chelsea got to play Benfica, who they dispatched 4-1 last night.

Good evening

After a surprise slip-up against Benfica, Bayern Munich will hope to get back on track and book their spot in the Club World Cup quarter-finals.

Flamengo are the Bundesliga winners’ opponents in the round of 16 with the pair contesting a place in the last eight.

Bayern’s defeat in their last outing came after strong performances against Auckland City and Boca Juniors, but they will be wary of the threat posed by their Brazilian opponents.

A second half surge in a 3-1 win over Chelsea showed the qualities that Flamengo possess as they look to deepen their run at the tournament.
