Flamengo 2-4 Bayern Munich - Harry Kane's double sends German champions into Club World Cup last-eight clash with Paris Saint-Germain

Though in fairness, Pereira's strike was not too bad just a yard high and wide of the upright.

Both sides are having opportunities in transition though both are struggling to carve out the right pass at present.

But his cross is deflected behind for a corner.

As a corner came in and was diverted across the area the ball deflected against Kane's arm from point-blank range but there was no need for a long VAR check.

De Arrascaeta did well to steer the ball across the six-yard box and then Araujo rocketed a left foot effort at the far post but the veteran German keeper blocked the effort then pushed it to safety.

No one who saw it will ever forget the 7-1 victory for Germany in the 2014 World Cup in Rio. Here a Rio side is again up against it early.

A good challenge from Upamecano dispossess de Arrascaeta and gives Kane the ball in space 25 yards out. He steadies himself and then drills a left-footed effort which takes a slight deflection off Ortiz and clips the inside of the near post en route to the opposite inside side-netting

Plata did fantastically to get to the by-line and centre for de Arrascaeta but he heads wide of the target.

You have to say it was coming, another inswinger into the six-yard box and Pulga inadvertently flicks his header over his goalkeeper and inside the far post.

And this time he was lucky as a touch from Upamecano in front of him would have resulted in a goal.

But Rossi does well, punching away to safety - and in any case he received a foul for a Bayern challenge on him.

It is an elongated process as the stars are individually introduced. Kane seemed to get a mixed reception from the Flamengo fans which seemed harsh. Neuer did as well.

One of the best features of the competition has been the support from the South American sides.

But now is the time when they will have to prove they can match it with the top European sides. Bayern are favored with the bookies at 4/6 while Flamengo are bigger than 4/1 to win. The draw sending the tie into extra time might be a bet at almost 3/1

Like Flamengo they had qualified already so could rest key players in their last group match against Benfica. Laimer, Tah, Stanisic, Kimmich, Goretzka, Coman and Kane return as the first choice XI is selected.

Having qualified for this stage already, Flamengo rested their troops against Los Angeles FC and so returning to the side are skipper Gerson, Jorginho, Franca, Pereira, Pulga and Plata.
