Andreas Schjelderup scored in the 13th minute to give Benfica a 1-0 victory over Bayern Munich on Tuesday, sending the Portuguese club to the top of Group C in the Club World Cup. The loss dropped Bayern Munich to second place in the group.

Benfica scored through 21-year-old Andreas Schjelderup in the first half, while Bayern gave Tom Bischof the chance to stake his claim as the deputy to Jamal Musiala. Vincent Kompany brought on his bigger names in the second half, and though Bayern improved, they failed to break through.

Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany has defended his rotation scheme in the 1-0 defeat against Benfica and insisted it doesn't make a difference who they now face in the knock-out stages of the Club World Cup.
