The final phase of the Club World Cup is accelerating. After the qualifications of Palmeiras and Chelsea yesterday and that of Paris Saint-Germain this Sunday, Flamengo and Bayern Munich found themselves to obtain their ticket in the quarterfinals in order to face the Ile-de-France. For this match, the Brazilians who were coached by Filipe Luis aligned themselves in 4-2-3-1 with known names like the left side Alex Sandro passed by Juventus. Ancient Jorginho of Naples, Chelsea and Arsenal, formed the double pivot with Erick Pulgar who had wore the fiorentina jersey. Behind Gonzalo Plata, there was the star Giorgian of Arrascaeta with the former Marseillais Gerson and the former Lille Lille Luiz Araujo with him. Bayern Munich opted for a classic 4-2-3-1 with Jonathan Tah and Dayot Upamecano in defense. In front, Harry Kane was supported by Michael Olise, Serge Gnabry and Kingsley Coman.
And this match was not indicated for missing punctuality supporters, on the contrary, it started drum. Very quickly, Bayern Munich imposed his law and Joshua Kimmich distinguished himself with a distant shot in corner (5th). The German midfielder was going to kick him and his center surprised Erick Pulgar who was able to unfortunately divert at the bottom of his own goals (1-0, 6th). Surprised at the start, Flamengo went back to the tackle and Gonzalo Plata central for Giorgian de Arrascaeta whose attempt could not find the frame (7th). Just behind, Bayern Munich was going to punish again with a Harry Kane full -axis strike just in front of the Brazilian surface. His strike was going to hit the post before finishing in the back of the net (2-0, 10th). Back to the wall, Flamengo did not give up and on an offering of Giorgian de Arrascaeta on the right side, Luiz Araujo thought to reduce with a strike at the second post, but Manuel Neuer pushed a monstrous parade (16th). Unlucky, the former Lille then split a volley that lacked the frame (32nd).
Harry Kane crucified Flamengo
But Brazilian efforts were not in vain. On a center from the left, Giorgian de Arrascaeta was a clever heel to the penalty spot for Gerson. The former player of Olympique de Marseille was going to explode the cages of Manuel Neuer with a missile under the transverse bar (2-1, 33rd). And while we could expect an awakening from Flamengo and Bavarian doubts, the Rekordmeister was going to repeat the powder. On a bad full-axis clearance of Luiz Araujo, Leon Goretzka intercepted chest and chained a heavy strike which was lodged in the left of the goal of Agustín Rossi (3-1, 42nd). A great advantage of the break for German training. Upon returning from the locker room, Flamengo did not appear struck and played his luck and Michael Olise conceded a penalty after a hand in the surface.
Jorginho then kicked the penalty to reduce the gap by a perfect opposite (3-2, 55th). A reaction that offered opportunities to equalize to Flamengo like this against Luiz Araujo where Konrad Laimer intercepted before Gerson (57th), but Bayern was not to be outdone with an unpacked title of Harry Kane (64th) and two possibilities overused by the entrant Leroy Sané (69th and 71st). Finally, the Bavarians were going to take shelter with a sublime axial ball between the lines of Joshua Kimmich for Harry Kane. The English scorer would crucify Agustín Rossi without the slightest hesitation (4-2, 73rd). Bayern Munich had done the hardest and Michael Olise in the counter mixed the brushes when driving the nail (86th). The Bavarians were scared, but with this 4-2 victory, they assure the essentials and join Paris Saint-Germain in the quarterfinals.
