Five-star Bayern win Club World Cup

European champions Bayern Munich claimed their fifth title of 2013 as they lifted the Club World Cup with a 2-0 win over Raja Casablanca in Saturday's final.

The Bavarian giants had few problems against Moroccan champions Raja as Bayern grabbed both goals inside the opening 22 minutes from Brazil centre-back Dante, then midfielder Thiago.

Having become the first German team to win the treble of Champions League, Bundesliga and German Cup titles last season, Bayern now add the Club World Cup to the UEFA Super Cup title they won in August.

It’s Bayern v ‘an entire country’ – Pep

Bayern Munich coach Pep Guardiola has admitted that his team will face a hostile reception in Saturday's Club World Cup final against Raja Casablanca in Marrakech.

Raja are playing in the competition as champions of the host nation and created a huge shock by beating South American champions Atletico Mineiro in the semifinals on Wednesday.

European champions Bayern are the stronger side on paper, but Guardiola has been impressed with Raja's performances thus far and they will have a large and passionate support behind them in the final.
