Bayern's Kompany cautious of 'dangerous' CWC rivals Boca

Bayern Munich strolled to a 10-0 win over Auckland City in their Club World Cup opener but there will be no room for complacency when they face Argentina's Boca Juniors in their second Group C match, the German club's coach Vincent Kompany said on Thursday.

Boca came close to winning their opener against Benfica but let a two-goal lead slip away in a 2-2 draw with the Portuguese side, and Kompany said they presented a real threat on the transition.

"We know the quality of the tournament... every team taking part here is a winning team," Kompany told reporters ahead of Saturday's game, with Bayern looking to win their third Club World Cup title.

"Boca are a very dangerous team in the transition game. They believe in their moments. The team spirit is good. We have respect for Boca. But we're looking at ourselves and want to bring our qualities to the game."

Kompany said they were familiar with the Argentine style of play with many of the country’s players plying their trade in Europe.

"We know a lot of Argentinian players from the European leagues. It’s a football we understand very well," he added. "It might feel a bit like an away game. But we want to be Bayern Munich. We have to show the right emotion."

Kompany was happy to welcome attacking midfielder Jamal Musiala and centre back Dayot Upamecano back into the side after missing over two months with injuries.
