Max Eberl wants Bayern Munich to finish their season with a trophy. The sporting director hopes the team beats VfB Stuttgart in the DFB-Pokal final this Saturday.
“We began the season by beating Stuttgart in the Supercup,” Eberl told Abendzeitung. “Now we want to complete the circle by beating them again in the cup final.”
The excitement has been strong since the semi-final win against Bayer Leverkusen. The players, fans and staff have all waited six years for this moment. You can feel how much the whole club wants this trophy.
“We must win the match and take the cup back to Munich,” he added. “Our women’s team has already won two trophies this year. Now we want to do the same.”
Bayern Munich are the most successful club in German football history. They last won this cup in 2020 when they defeated Bayer Leverkusen 4-2. That win was also the last time the club won both the league and the cup in the same season.
