Bayern reach Club World Cup Final

Bayern Munich booked their place in the Fifa Club World Cup Final with a 3-0 victory over Chinese side Guangzhou Evergrande in Morocco on Tuesday night. The European champions advanced courtesy of goals from Ballon d’Or nominee Franck Ribery, Mario Mandzukic and Mario Gotze at Stade Adrar.

The German giants will contest tournament honours with either home hopefuls Raja Casablanca or Atletico Mineiro of Brazil in Marrakesh on Sunday.

Bayern were frustrated for much of the first half against Guangzhou, with Ribery eventually opening the scoring by tucking away an attempted clearance in the 40th minute.

Mandzukic doubled the lead soon after by heading home Thiago Alcantara’s cross just before the break.

Gotze then effectively killed off the tie by rounding off an attacking move initiated by David Alaba barely two minutes after the restart.-Kickoff.
