Harry Kane scores two goals while the German giants are killing another South American Cup of the Club World Cup.
Bayern Munich overcome a determined resistance of Flamengo to reserve its place in the quarterfinals of the Club World Cup with an entertaining 4-2 victory in their tour 16.
Harry Kane scored twice while the German giants have become the last European team to eliminate their South American counterparts from the World Cup competition on Sunday, which prompted the Flamengo Filipe Luis coach to say that the football elite “remains in Europe”.
Vincent Kompany’s team will now play European champions Paris Saint-Germain In Atlanta on Saturday for a place in the last four.
Flamengo, supported by a huge and passionate follow -up at the Hard Rock stadium, lost the tournament despite a real determination performance of the Luis team.
Joshua Kimmich opened the scoring for Bayern in the sixth minute, and the scoring was doubled four minutes later when Kane put his first.
Bayern seemed that they were going to run away with the game, but the triple champions of the Copa Libertadores were able to find foot.
Flamengo was rewarded for their efforts in the 33rd minute while after the dangerous Luiz Araujo played the ball on the left, the ball fell in Gerson who unleashed a thunderbolt which exceeded Neuer to bring most of the crowd of 60,914.
But all this good job of the Rio team was defeated four minutes before the break when the bad clearance of Araujo landed directly at the feet of Leon Goretzka who had time and space to settle before, more than 20 meters, placing his shot in the area to do it 3-1.
Flamengo came out determined to answer once again and they have once again reduced the deficit in the 55th minute when Michael Olise managed a cross of Giorgian from Arrascaeta at close range and Jorginho took the opportunity with an frozen cooling conversion.
The competition was finally settled in the 73rd minute when Konrad Laimer won the ball in the midfield and nourished Kimmich who, in turn, slipped the ball to Kane, who beat Agustin Rossi with one of his brand discs and his electric records.
“European teams have the best Brazilian players”
Lais later said that the football elite had stayed in Europe when he had removed his cap on the killer touch from Bayern.
“It is up to us to simply recognize the superiority of our opponent. They are very good, we knew it. At this level, any error is fatal. Those who deserved to go through,” he said.
“Our plan worked and we were able to apply pressure and create score opportunities, but they were better than us; We play against the football elite. If Vinicius Jr had not left for Real Madrid, we would have the best player in the world.
“They [South American players] I want to be in the elite and that’s what they are, if we had won today and the tournament, that would not change reality – they are high quality teams. We have many Brazilian players in our teams, but they [the European teams] have the best. They have better players – it’s a fact. “”
The European teams were expected to dominate the extended club World Cup, but sometimes had trouble in the group phase while all the Brazilian teams advanced and made an impression.
Bayern, however, has restored a measure of what the European football establishment would call “the order” before the confrontation of Inter Milan with the vagueness of Brazil, also in the last 16. Palmeiras progressed by beating his Brazilian Botafogo compatriot on Saturday.
