A record falls at Bayern

Cologne was no match this Wednesday in 16e final of the German Cup. Opposed to Bayern, the locals lost with a score of 1-4 after having opened the scoring by Ache (31e). Diaz (36e) and Kane (38e) turned the tide in the space of two minutes. Then Kane went for his double (64e) and Olise completed the Bavarian work (72e).

Expected, this qualification of Bayern for the round of 16 of the Pokal is no less historic. The flagship club of Munich in fact signs a 14e consecutive success since the start of the 2025-2026 financial year. Unprecedented on the scale of Europe and the five major leagues of the continent.

A few days earlier against Mönchengladbach in the Bundesliga, the team led by Vincent Kompany had equaled Fabio Capello’s AC Milan who in 1992 had managed a string of 13 victories to start their season. Bayern will have the opportunity to continue their momentum this weekend against Bayer in the league. Even at the expense of PSG in the Champions League next Tuesday.
