Man, the benfica vs bayern game at the Club World Cup was crazy! I seriously didn't see that coming and I don't think most people did either. Usually, Bayern is the big dog, right? They're always favorites and have this killer squad with Harry Kane, Sané, Musiala, and Neuer. It's rare to see them get upset, especially by a non-top 5 league team. But Benfica just straight up outplayed them, and Angel Di Maria turned it on like it was his prime. That dude’s been around forever and still totally wrecked Bayern's defense, scoring the only goal in a win nobody really expected.

I've watched a lot of these big matches, and it's not every day you see Bayern get held scoreless, especially with their attack. Most fans assumed Bayern would cruise, but Benfica came out with so much energy and just wanted it more. The stats back it up too: solid defense and picking the perfect moment to strike. I love seeing underdogs pull off stuff like this, it keeps football fun. If you want more crazy sports moments, you should check out more Club World Cup upsets, because this one’s definitely a new highlight for me.
