Group C at the 2025 Club World Cup concludes today and our focus is on the all-European clash between Bayern Munich and Benfica at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The German champions have already booked their last-16 spot and Benfica are well placed to follow them, but far from guaranteed. They need a point today to make absolutely sure of a knockout place.
At the same time, third-placed Boca Juniors need a big victory against Auckland City to stand any chance of progression.

Bank of America Stadium is an open-air, multi-use ground home to the NFL’s Carolina Panthers and MLS side Charlotte FC, in Charlotte, among the newest “soccer cities” in the country.
It has become a routine stop for international friendlies and CONCACAF Gold Cup clashes, including hosting Mexico’s sizable community of fans in the Southeast.
Charlotte FC draws big crowds, as well, and with Bayern Munich playing here today, a solid turnout of fans is expected in the Queen City.
