Operating at an over 2. 5 points per game average while sitting pretty with a comfortable lead in the league, fighting their way into the DFB Pokal semifinals while finished second in the UCL group stages before annihilating Atalanta Bergamo 10-2 on aggregate in the Round of 16 are strong indicators that the Bavarians mean business this season. But more than just that, the fact that they are alive and still able to triumph in all three competitions at the start of April for the first time in many years has awakened hope in fans.
Could Bayern win the treble for the third time in the club’s history? When asked about the possibility of winning all three competitions, Bayern president Herbert Hainer’s response was short and sweet: “We have the chance. And as you know FC Bayern, when we have the chance, we want to make it happen,” the former Adidas CEO declared, as captured by @iMiaSanMia .
Of course, it is important to not celebrate too soon. The Bundesliga is not yet won, Bayern will need to improve on their most recent 1-1 draw with Bayer Leverkusen to advance to the final of the Pokal and perennial UCL winners Real Madrid await Bayern in die Königsklasse. As well as the club have done to get this far, they have not reached the finish line yet.
