Overview

Pre-season

Auckland City began their preseason fixtures with a 1–0 loss to Birkenhead United at the Croatian Cultural Club. ^[1] The following day the club announced the signing of former England youth international Joe Ridley. ^{[2] [3]}

On 21 February 2024, City got their first win of pre-season, defeating West Coast Rangers 3–1 at the Croatian Cultural Club. ^[4] City grabbed their second win in the same week with a 3–2 win over Eastern Suburbs after being two behind at half time. ^[4]

City finished their pre-season with a 2–0 win over Manurewa on 2 March 2024. ^[5]

Northern League

The league fixtures were announced on 1 March 2024. ^[6] City play the season opener against local rivals Auckland United in the Dominion Road Derby, ^{[7] [8]} and finish the season away at Melville United. ^[9]

City had a strong start to the season winning their first 5 games, conceding just 6 goals. ^{[10] [11]} In their round 9 fixture against Bay Olympic that was brought forward, they suffered their first Northern League defeat since 2022 in what was Albert Riera's 100th game in charge. ^{[12] [13] [14]}

Chatham Cup

As a Northern League side, City received a bye to Round 2 of the Chatham Cup. ^[15] The Navy Blues were drawn at home to NRFL Championship side Metro in Round 2. ^{[16] [17]}

After downing Metro 5–0 in Round 2, City were drawn at home to fellow Northern League side Hamilton Wanderers in Round 3. ^{[18] [19]}

OFC Champions League

Auckland City qualified for the 2023 Grand Final on 4 November 2023 after their National League win vs Petone. As the two finalists qualify for the OFC Champions League play-offs this meant they also qualified for the 2024 OFC Champions League. ^{[20] [21]} Wellington Olympic qualified on 10 November 2023 after Chirstchurch United lost to rivals Cashmere Technical. This meant Auckland City would face Wellington Olympic in the National play-offs. ^{[22] [23]}

The draw for the group stage took place on 17 January 2024 at OFC Home of Football in Auckland, New Zealand. The winner of the play-off between City and Wellington Olympic would face the play-off winners from Solomon Islands, Papua New Guinea, and Fiji in Group A. ^{[24] [25]}

Auckland City announced their Champions League squad on 8 March 2024. ^[26]

City started their competitive fixtures off with a 1–0 win over Wellington Olympic in the first league of the National play-offs. Stipe Ukich came off the bench to put City in front after 72 minutes, after receiving a ball down the left side from Nathan Lobo. ^{[27] [28]} After winning the first leg at home, City only required a draw in the return leg in Wellington. ^[29] Hamish Watson gave Olympic a lead in the 20th minute after he gained the ball from Vale's header, finishing into the bottom corner. Jesse Randall doubled their lead within 3 minutes, giving them the advantage in the tie. Mario Ilich pulled one back for City, before Watson restored the advantage a minute later. It took Murati three minutes into the second half to tie the aggregate score again, before Cam Howieson found the winner with eight minutes to go. The win for City sees them compete in the group stages for the 19th season in a row since they first entered the competition. ^{[30] [31] [32]} The win also saw them win back the Mediterranean Cup, a cup contested between City and Olympic acknowledging heir Croatian and Greek roots. ^[30]

City were drawn into a group with Fiji's Rewa, Papua New Guinea's Hekari United and Solomon Warriors of the Solomon Islands. ^{[30] [33]} After drawing with Rewa in their opening game, ^[34] City bounced back with a 1–0 win over Hekari United and a 5–0 win over Solomon Warriors to finish top of their group on goal difference. ^{[35] [36] [37]} As group winners they played runners-up of Group B, AS Magenta. ^{[38] [39]} After heading in to the break scoreless, Stipe Ukich calmy slotted the ball into the far corner in the 66th minute to give City a 1–0 win. ^[40] This win meant they qualified for the final where they would face Pirae. This was a replay of City's first Oceanian final in 2006, when they faced Pirae at North Harbour Stadium. ^[41]

City got off to a quick start in the final taking the lead through a Michael den Heijer goal in the 6th minute. Liam Gillion doubled the lead just before half time, with Stipe Ukich and Christian Gray also finding the back of the net in the second half to give City a 4–0 win in the final. This is a record-extending 12th OFC Champions League title for City and their third in a row. ^{[42] [43]}

FIFA Intercontinental Cup

As winners of the 2024 OFC Champions League, City qualified for the first edition of the FIFA Intercontinental Cup to be held in December. ^{[43] [44]}
