Match summary
The meeting between Bayern Munich and Boca Juniors of Buenos Aires may have been a little short on footballing class but was a stirring physical and mental battle nonetheless. At the time, Bayern had gone off the boil at home and were clearly struggling for focus after winning the Champions League just a few months earlier, but the South Americans let their urge to impress run away with them. Delgado received a second yellow card and his marching orders for simulation even before the half-time whistle, but Bayern were unable to exploit their numerical advantage as ten-man Boca Juniors held on grimly. The tactic ultimately failed as Sammy Kuffour netted the winning goal on 109 minutes following a goalmouth scramble.

Key player
Oliver Kahn achieved superstar status in the Far East after a string of sensational performances at the 2002 FIFA World Cup Korea/Japan TM. The keeper had laid the foundations for his rise to stardom in the region with a flawless display in the Toyota Cup final against Boca Juniors in Tokyo. The shotstopper, captain on the day in the absence of injured Stefan Effenberg, pulled off a breathtaking save on 29 minutes as Schelotto burst onto a defence-splitting pass, ensuring his side maintained parity until Sammy Kuffour finally sealed the victory with an extra-time strike.

Coach
Ottmar Hitzfeld rates as one of the world's most successful club coaches. After hanging up his boots, he became a popular head coach at Borussia Dortmund before confirming a burgeoning reputation in six years at the Bayern helm. The "General" guided Munich to four German championships and two DFB German Cup successes, although the crowning glory was Bayern's first continental triumph in 25 years with the 2001 Champions League, followed by the Toyota Cup later that year. Hitzfeld left Bayern at the end of the 2003-4 campaign as Germany's most successful club coach with 16 trophies to his name. Hitzfeld shares with Ernst Hapoel the distinction of leading two different teams to the Champions League title, Hapoel with Feyenoord and Hamburg, Hitzfeld with Borussia Dortmund and Bayern.
