Champions League holders Bayern Munich reached the Club World Cup final where they will face Mexican side Tigres after two goals from Robert Lewandowski gave them a clinical 2-0 win over Al Ahly on Monday.
Bayern will meet Tigres on Thursday in a bid to win their second title in the competition after Egyptians Al Ahly, the African Champions League winners, take on Palmeiras of Brazil in the third-place playoff.
Bayern dominated and missed several chances either side of Lewandowski's 17th-minute opener as the Pole drilled in a shot from eight metres after Serge Gnabry squared back a Kingsley Coman effort across the face of goal.
Lewandowski dinked a shot over the bar after a flowing move in the 37th minute and left back Alphonso Davies fired just wide in the 40th as Bayern kept pressing forward.
Al Ahly came forward with a little more purpose in the second half as the pace dropped but Bayern dominated possession comfortably and Lewandowski sealed the contest with another trademark finish in the 85th minute.
Substitute Leroy Sane won the ball on the right flank and swung in a superb cross for the prolific Lewandowski to nod home at the far post.

Lol shows barca is the worst team in the world [Crylaugh] Also al ahly's defence was last night
well you are talking about the 8-2 thing and saying thta we only scored 2 against Al Ahly Firstly i don't think you know about al ahly how big of a team they are outside europe secondly you have to accept the fact thta your team was the worst when we faced them so it had to be a thrashing also al ahly defended really well

I will prefer that rather than spending on defence to defend lewandoski from scoring I will just pay a doctor to declare him of having COVIC 19. cameroon did it to DR Congo and succeeded, so other teams and countries should learn from Cameroon
