Record-breaking Bayern win Bundesliga - now for the Treble
England captain Harry Kane, who scored a hat-trick, Michael Olise and summer signing Luis Diaz were on the scoresheet as Bayern swatted Ole Werner's team aside on home soil. Over the next 29 games that trio evolved into one of the most formidable forward lines the Bundesliga has seen, driving Bayern to a record 109 goals. In the history of the Bundesliga, only two teams had previously reached the 100-goal mark - Bayern in 1971-72 and 2019-20.
The fact that Vincent Kompany's side have surpassed that tally with four games remaining is testament to their breathtaking quality and relentless mentality. With three of their final matches coming against bottom-half opposition, including second-bottom Wolfsburg and bottom club Heidenheim, Bayern will have their sights set on pushing towards 120 goals. But it is not just in attack where Bayern have excelled this season.
The 35-time champions have been equally impressive at the back, conceding only 29 goals. Should they win their remaining matches, they would equal the record for the most points in a Bundesliga season - 91, set by Jupp Heynckes' treble-winning Bayern 13 years ago. Kane has scored 139 goals in 136 games since joining Bayern in 2023 It was only fitting that Kane scored on a historic afternoon in Munich on Sunday.
There have been several standout performers for Bayern this season, but none more so than the number nine. It was only two years ago that Kane was being challenged about his decision to move to Germany as Bayern ended a season trophyless for the first time in 12 years. But fast forward to the present day and Kane has not only helped his side return to the summit of German football by winning back-to-back titles, but has also put himself in contention to win football's most prestigious individual accolade - the Ballon d'Or - after netting 32 goals in 27 Bundesliga appearances this term.
No player in Europe's top five leagues has managed more goals than Kane's 50 in all competitions. Now in his third season at Bayern, Kane is also delivering in the Champions League. This month he scored home and away against Real Madrid in the quarter‑finals to help Bayern reach the semi-finals for the first time since 2024, while equalling Frank Lampard as the highest‑scoring Englishman in the knockout stages of the competition with 15 goals.
