In December 1976, Bayern entered the then rather secondary World Club Cup for the first time and triumphed over Cruzeiro Belo Horizonte of Brazil in two matches memorable for the weather conditions (2-0 in Munich/0-0). In Munich, snow was already falling in November, overwhelming the pitch heating. In Brazil, three days before Christmas, it was 23 degrees and a downpour swept across the pitch.
Kick-off was at 22:30. The goals came from Gerd Mueller and Jupp Kapellmann.
