The 2025 FIFA Club World Cup Round of 16 brings together two heavyweights of modern football as Brazil’s Flamengo take on Germany’s Bayern Munich. Both sides topped their groups unbeaten. The Round of 16 clash between Flamengo vs Bayern Munich is set for Sunday, June 29, 2025, at 16:00 EDT. It will be played at Hard Rock Stadium, located in Miami Gardens, Florida, USA and is widely regarded as one of the standout fixtures in the knockout stage of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup.
Flamengo clinched top spot in Group D with wins over Espérance de Tunis (2–0) and Chelsea (3–1), then drew 1–1 with LAFC in their final match to finish with seven points and advance to the Round of 16.
Flamengo rely on the creativity of midfield maestro Éverton Ribeiro and the predatory finishing of forward Pedro to unlock Bayern’s defence. Their fluid, attack-minded style has yielded seven goals and only one conceded in three games, giving them confidence in front of goal.
Bayern Munich swept through Group C unbeaten to reach the Round of 16, thumping Auckland City 10–0 and edging Boca Juniors 2–1 in their two wins. They finished on six points and sealed their knockout-round spot comfortably.
Bayern Munich, fresh from their 12-goal group haul, boast world-class firepower in Harry Kane and Leroy Sané, backed by a rock-solid defence marshalled by Dayot Upamecano. Under coach Thomas Tuchel, they’ve struck a fine balance between ruthless counter-attacks and patient possession play.
This match promises end-to-end action as Flamengo’s flair meets Bayern’s clinical efficiency. Whoever adapts quickest to the high stakes of knockout football will take a giant step toward lifting the Club World Cup trophy.
