Bayern Munich have officially secured a record-extending 35th Bundesliga title after a commanding 4-2 home victory over VfB Stuttgart at the Allianz Arena.
Harry Kane came off the bench to net his 32nd league goal of a prolific campaign, further cementing his status as the division’s leading marksman and adding a second major trophy to his cabinet this season.
Despite an early scare when Chris Führich opened the scoring for the visitors, a devastating seven-minute blitz before half-time saw Raphael Guerreiro, Nicolas Jackson, and Alphonso Davies turn the tie on its head.
The result marks back-to-back Bundesliga titles for manager Vincent Kompany, who has successfully navigated a grueling schedule to clinch the Meisterschale with four games to spare.
Kompany showed significant tactical depth by rotating eight players following their midweek Champions League triumph over Real Madrid, resting stars Michael Olise and Manuel Neuer for the final push.
The victory was made even sweeter by Borussia Dortmund’s 2-1 slip-up against Hoffenheim on Saturday, which left the door wide open for the Bavarians to celebrate in front of their home support.
Assistant coaches were seen distributed “2026 Champions” t-shirts long before the final whistle, as Bayern maintained total control despite a late consolation goal from Stuttgart’s Chema Andres.
With the league secured, Bayern’s focus now shifts to a potential treble, as they prepare for a high-stakes German Cup semi-final against Bayer Leverkusen this Wednesday.
“These moments are the result of incredible hard work,” Kompany remarked during the post-match celebrations. “We will enjoy this tonight, but tomorrow it is back to business.”
Given Bayern’s current form and squad depth, do you believe Vincent Kompany can lead this group to a historic treble by securing both the DFB-Pokal and the Champions League in May?
