Bayern Munich’s 2025/26 season has been highly successful under Vincent Kompany, despite a Champions League setback against Paris Saint-Germain. The team scored 122 Bundesliga goals and won the league title comfortably. Bayern also returned to the DFB-Pokal Final for the first time since 2020. The final will be against defending cup champion VfB Stuttgart, creating a chance to match the women’s team domestic double achievement. Bayern sporting chief Max Eberl emphasized that the season began with a Supercup win over VfB and that the club wants to bring the cup back to Munich. The final is framed as a culmination after a long wait and a six-year absence from the match.
"Despite a hard-fought Champions League setback against Paris Saint-Germain, the Bavarians have otherwise set the football world ablaze in Vincent Kompany's second year as coach, scoring 122 Bundesliga goals en route to a comfortable league title win and returning to the DFB-Pokal Final for the first time since 2020."
"There, the Bayern men will face defending cup champion VfB Stuttgart. It is a chance to equal the Bayern women's accomplishment this season of a domestic double - and an end to the campaign that comes against the same opponent it all started against."
""We started the season with the Supercup win against VfB - now we want to bring things full circle with a successful cup win against VfB," Bayern sporting chief Max Eberl stated in comments captured by @iMiaSanMia. "The anticipation was already palpable after the semi-final against Leverkusen. You can feel how the players, the fans, the whole club are longing for this final after a six-year absence. Now, of course, we want to make the game a success and bring the cup back to Munich.""
""After the women's team already achieved the double, we now want to follow suit." It is the end of a long road for the Bavarians this season. Can they cap it off with one more win?"
