FIFA Club World Cup: Benfica triumphs in lopsided, weather-delayed win over Auckland

Leandro Barreiro scored in the 76th and 78th minutes as Benfica pulled away to a 6-0 victory over semi-pro side Auckland City in a Group C encounter Friday, one plagued by a lengthy halftime weather delay. Angel Di María converted twice from the penalty spot for his second and third goals of the tournament, once in stoppage time of each half. Vangelis Pavlidis and Renato Sanches added goals early in the second half after play finally restarted. The Portuguese victors pressured until the end, knowing goal differential could determine who advances to the FIFA Club World Cup knockout phase, and Di María earned a second penalty shot with one final slaloming run into the box. Benfica will close Group C against Bayern Munich, which defeated Auckland 10-0 in their opener. Officially eliminated, Auckland will play Boca Juniors on Matchday 3 on Tuesday. Boca and Benfica drew 2-2 on Monday. After Auckland's Nathan Garrow made seven first-half stops, Di Maria finally put Benfica in front in the eighth minute of first-half stoppage time. Gianluca Prestianni won the opportunity, slicing into the right corner of the box and weathering Haris Zeb's late sliding challenge. ALSO READ: Flamengo fights back to stun Chelsea 3-1 and stay top of Group D Di Maria calmly converted, allowing Garrow to guess in the wrong direction before dispatching his side-footed effort. That eased some growing frustration from the Portuguese favourites after a succession of missed chances and 18 total first-half shot attempts. Amid that stretch, Alvaro Carreras picked up his second caution of the tournament, meaning he'll be suspended for Benfica's third match against River Plate on Tuesday. Auckland began the second half energetically after the match was delayed approximately two hours and nine minutes due to inclement weather. But Benfica doubled its advantage in the 53rd minute through Pavlidis, who received Orkun Kokcu's pass inside the penalty area with his back to the goal, turned, neatly evaded a lunging challenge and finished low to the left post. In the 63rd minute, substitute Sanches made it 3-0 only moments after his second-half introduction. His shot from beyond the area took a heavy deflection off Auckland's Matthew Ellis on its way into the bottom right corner.

Neeraj Chopra wins first Diamond League title in two years after finishing top in Paris

Neeraj Chopra clinched his first Diamond League title in two years after finishing top in Paris at the Charlety Stadium on Friday (Saturday, according to IST). His best throw of the night came at 88.16m in his first attempt, which was enough to seal the win for the Olympic gold medallist. Julian Weber of Germany, who had beaten Neeraj at the Doha Diamond League and the Janusz Kusociński Memorial in Poland, finished second, with his best throw coming at 87.88m. Brazil's Luiz Mauricio da Silva finished third with an attempt of 86.62m, which was a new personal best for him. He also broke his previous continental record of 86.34m. Grenada's Anderson Peters, who was touted to be one of Neeraj's main competitors ahead of the event, finished fifth with a best effort of 80.29. Trinidad and Tobago's Keshorn Walcott got fourth place with a second-round attempt of 81.66m. AS IT HAPPENED: Men's javelin HIGHLIGHTS at Paris DL 2025 Paris was Neeraj's second Diamond League outing of the season after Doha, where he broke the 90m mark for the first time with a throw of 90.23m, bettering his previous best of 89.94m. The two-time Olympic medallist Indian began the 2025 season with a title in an invitational meet at Potchefstroom, South Africa, with a throw of 84.52m. The Indian Neeraj made his first Paris Diamond League appearance in eight years. His last outing was in 2017 as a junior world champion, where he finished fifth with a throw of 84.67m. Neeraj's next event will be the Ostrava Golden Spike 2025 athletics meet in the Czech Republic on June 24. After that, the reigning world champion will feature in the inaugural edition of the Neeraj Chopra Classic on July 5 in Bengaluru, a World Athletics category A event that he is hosting.
