The triple in sight: Why Bayern are unstoppable

“I think we are ready for it,” said goalkeeper Manuel Neuer confidently. And the fans are convinced of their team’s treble anyway. “We’ll win the championship and the European Cup and the cup,” they sang. Bayern’s run is actually impressive at the moment.

Goals guaranteed

“The team is really outstanding at the moment, has an incredible camaraderie and enthusiasm for the game,” praised President Herbert Hainer. “Everything comes together: the solidarity, the fitness, the joy of playing and the system in which we play.” Coach Vincent Kompany seems to have taken the team to a new level. Aggressive pressing, ball security, individual class – an almost unbeatable mix this season.

What is also noticeable is Bayern’s accuracy. They have scored in every single one of the 48 competitive games so far this season. They only scored once in three games – and they didn’t win any of these three games in the end: 1:3 against Arsenal, 1:2 against Augsburg, 1:1 against Leverkusen.

The next stop on the way to the triple is Mainz in the Bundesliga on Saturday. It’s quite possible that Coach Kompany will rest a few of his stars again, as the championship has long been wrapped up. And then the next big highlight awaits.

Superstar Harry Kane

In the semi-finals of the Champions League, the Munich team will be guests at PSG in Paris on Tuesday. The anticipation is great. “This is simply an outstanding team that knows how to win. These will be two games that will delight the whole of football Europe,” said sports director Max Eberl.

While Jamal Musiala is getting better and better after his serious injury, Harry Kane can be relied on as always. He gave Bayern the lead against Leverkusen. For the 32-year-old Englishman, it was his 52nd competitive goal in his 44th appearance this season. In total, Kane has already scored 137 goals in 140 games for Munich. An incredible rate.
