Bayern's perfect 11 from 11 in Europe, from 8-2 v Barça to the Treble
Post
📰 Eleven games, eleven wins, 43 goals: in 2019-20 Bayern became the first team to win the Champions League without dropping a point.
📌 Key points
🏆 Bayern won all 11 of their Champions League matches in 2019-20.
⚽ They scored 43 goals, with Robert Lewandowski top scorer on 15.
💥 They thrashed Barcelona 8-2 in the quarter-finals.
🎯 Kingsley Coman's 59th-minute header beat PSG 1-0 in the final.
🧢 Under Hansi Flick, Bayern completed the club's second treble.
📝 What happened
🦠 The 2019-20 competition was suspended because of COVID-19 and resumed as a single-leg "final eight" tournament in Lisbon from the quarter-finals. Hansi Flick had taken over from Niko Kovač during the season.
💥 In Lisbon, Bayern stunned the world by beating Barcelona 8-2 in the quarter-finals. After getting past Lyon in the semis, they faced Paris Saint-Germain in the final on 23 August 2020, played behind closed doors.
🎯 The final was tight until Coman headed in on 59 minutes. Bayern held on for a 1-0 win and their sixth European Cup.
🏆 Together with the Bundesliga and DFB-Pokal, it completed a treble, Bayern's second after 2013, making them only the second European men's club to do it twice. It was also the first time any team had won a European competition with a 100% record.
📊 By the numbers
• Champions League record: 11 played, 11 won
• Goals: 43 (Lewandowski 15)
• Quarter-final: Bayern 8-2 Barcelona
• Final: Bayern 1-0 PSG (Coman 59')
🔭 Why it matters
On paper, 2019-20 Bayern are the most perfect winners in Champions League history. Some argue the one-off knockout format during the pandemic makes comparisons with other eras difficult, and fans will always debate them against the great Milan, Real Madrid and Barcelona sides.
