It is day seven at the 2025 Club World Cup and the second round of group games continues as Bayern Munich challenge Boca Juniors.
Bayern thrashed lowly Auckland City 10-0 in their first game of the competition, while Boca drew 2-2 against Benfica in a match where both sides finished with ten men.
Both will hope to take a step towards qualification for the knockout stages today in Miami.

This is the final match on day seven of the 2025 Club World Cup and, for me, they have saved the best until last.
The day started in Orlando where a huge weather delay meant that the first game actually finished later than the second game.
Benfica were big winners against Auckland City in that first match, while Chelsea were stunned by Flamengo in Philadelphia at the same time.
Today's third game is just approaching the half-hour mark and it is still goalless between LAFC and Esperance.

The Club World Cup began here Miami on June 14. Hard Rock Stadium was the site for the 2024 Copa América final between Argentina and Colombia.
The match was marred by a lack of crowd control that led to a near stampede outside the stadium’s gates before kickoff. It was a security disaster for the tournament’s organizers (CONMEBOL) and the local government.
The Club World Cup will be another opportunity for Hard Rock Stadium to prove it can host international football matches safely before the 2026 World Cup.
Messi will be the main attraction, but major brands like Boca Juniors will attract local fan groups and neutrals alike.
There is no public transportation system to the stadium, making driving or apps such as Uber or Lyft the most common way for fans to reach the site.
