Bayern Munich recorded the biggest win in Club World Cup history as they thrashed Auckland City 10-0 at the TQL Stadium in Cincinnati.
In a desperately one-sided contest, Jamal Musiala scored a hat-trick and Thomas Muller, Michael Olise and Kingsley Coman all scored two goals.
Sacha Boey scored the other with England captain Harry Kane unable to get in on the act before being subbed off on the hour mark.
Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich jump to the top of Club World Cup Group C while Auckland City, who are part-time, are bottom.
Portuguese club Benfica and Argentine giants Boca Juniors are the other two sides in that group looking to progress to the knockout stages.
Bayern’s victory is the biggest since the inaugural Club World Club back in 2000.
The previous biggest win was Al Hilal’s 6-1 victory over Al Jazira in 2022.
The 21st edition of the Club World Cup is being held in the United States – one of the host teams Inter Miami drew 0-0 with Al Ahly in the tournament opener.
