Auckland City are on their way to yet another Fifa Club World Cup, after a 3-0 win over AS Venus in the Oceania Champions League final on Thursday.
The result means the Sandringham club will make their 10th appearance since 2006 at Fifa's showpiece club event, which is expected to be held next February in the United Arab Emirates.
The Sandringham club took control of the decider with two first-half goals against the Tahitian representatives, before an 85th minute Emiliano Tade strike sealed the victory.
Thursday's result represented Auckland City's first Oceania Champions League triumph since 2017, after semifinal exits in 2018 and 2019, before the tournament was shelved due to Covid.
They were deserved winners, with a 100 per cent record in the tournament, scoring 17 goals and conceding only one.
