The Auckland City is the most humble club of this Club World Cupdespite that, he managed to resist a whole first half against Benfica, but ended up receiving six goals in the second part. New Zealande occupies The 574th position of the OPTA World ranking, A position that resembles teams from the Andalusian Honor Division, the 6th Spanish Division.
Despite being far from the level of the other teams (16 goals received in two meetings), the oceanics are winning the esteem of fans who are following the tournament and Even in Spain there are teams that want to twist with them.
This is the case of Castilleja, Sevillian team that is two places above Auckland City. The team players met last Friday to follow the duel between the Neozylalands and Benfica.

And despite the distance and despite the fact that Auckland is playing the prestigious club World Cup in the United States against rivals as Bayern Munich, Boca Juniors and Benficaonly two positions separate both teams in the World Ranking of OPTA. New Zealandes are a semi -professional team and Many of their players have work outside football. However, their great performances in the Oceania Champions have made them deserving of being competing with the best and this has penetrated in Castillejos.
With only two meetings played, Auckland City is already eliminated. The tournament started against Bayern and fell into a blunt 10-0 and later he fit six against Benfica. Two hard results that do not change the happiness of the players for being able to play these types of births.
The oceanics will say goodbye to the Club World Cup on the next Tuesday, June 24 and will do so before another historic as Boca Juniors in the Geodis Park by Nashville. A nice ending for a beautiful story that has its greatest followers in a Sevillian town.
