Bend but don't break: Relive Benfica's victory over Bayern Munich

Benfica claimed the top seed from Group C after defeating Bayern Munich 1-0 on Tuesday in Charlotte, North Carolina.

As Águias needed a draw to ensure advancement to the round of 16 of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup but they instead went for the win, hitting on the counterattack against a heavily rotated Bayern side.

When the Bundesliga giants brought in reinforcements in the second half, it was the Benfica defence's time to shine as they thwarted a late-game onslaught. Specifically, goalkeeper Anatoliy Trubin earned his paycheque with several big saves in the final frame, maintaining the clean sheet and victory for his side.
