Neuer signals to the Bavarians: We need to be careful with Boka

Bayern are in full training for their second group game at the Club World Cup against Boca Juniors. It will be more or less a classic between the multiple German champions and the Argentinian champions. Given what happened in Boca's first match against Benfica, the match against Bayern is also expected to be heated.

A hot one in two directions, firstly the high temperatures expected in Miami and secondly the fiery atmosphere expected to be created by the Boca Juniors fans. This was also warned by Bayern captain Manuel Neuer, during his comments to the media.

" Given the expected heated atmosphere, it is important to stay focused, stay calm and focus on our strengths," Manuel Neuer warned the Munich club's media ahead of the match in Miami on Saturday evening. "We are definitely expecting a good atmosphere ," Neuer added.

“ We saw how the match against Benfica went .” Boca opened their Club World Cup campaign with a 2-2 draw against Benfica on Monday. In addition to the great support of tens of thousands of Argentine fans in the stands, the match saw three red cards, two of which for the yellow-blue club. Although teams from Europe are the usual favorites in the fight for the title on July 13, the Bayern captain has been more measured in his stance.

He said that South American teams should not be underestimated in the Club World Cup. " We are used to the fact that we play in Europe and everyone sees us often and constantly. So I understand that all the clubs that come from Europe see us as favorites.

But the others should not be underestimated either, because there are very good teams from other continents. I would highly rate the clubs from South America. They have taken this tournament very seriously ,” said Neuer. In fact, the Bayern captain's statement is not just a polite one. The facts speak for themselves. None of the six teams from the South American continent – ​​four from Brazil, two from Argentina – have lost their first match.
