2020 Sextuple Winners

Lore & Background

Adding on to the three titles that made up their continental treble in the previous season, Bayern's victories in this campaign's DFL-Supercup, UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup ensured that the club had won all six competitions they took part in across the 2020 calendar year, thus joining Barcelona in 2009 as the only other side to accomplish this 'sextuple' in the history of European football.

In Their Own Story

The rain in Lisbon didn't just fall; it hammered against the Estádio da Luz, mirroring the storm brewing inside Bayern Munich's chests. It was August, but the humidity felt heavy with history. Robert Lewandowski stood near the center circle, chest heaving, eyes locked on the silver gleam of the trophy being wheeled out by stewards. While teammates dissolved into tears, the Polish striker remained a predator who had finally cornered his ultimate prey. When the final whistle pierced the silence of the away end, it was instantly swallowed by a roar that seemed to rattle the stadium's very foundations. The 1-0 victory over PSG wasn't just a win; it was an erasure of every doubt ever cast against them. As Manuel Neuer hoisted the Champions League cup, the sextuple wasn't written in ink yet—it was etched into football history.
