Bayern Munich are back to doing Bayern Munich things. A ruthless 2-0 win over Bayer Leverkusen sealed their place in the Champions League quarter-finals for the sixth year in a row. If Inter Milan are next, they better brace themselves this Bayern side means business.
Harry Kane, as ever, was at the heart of it. His 33rd goal of the season? A bizarre stroll-in finish after a Joshua Kimmich free-kick somehow found its way to him.
His assist? A slick touch in a rapid right-sided move, setting up Alphonso Davies to smash home a crisp volley. Kane isn’t just scoring for fun anymore; he’s a conductor in a Bayern orchestra that’s hitting all the right notes.
Leverkusen? Their domestic dominance over Bayern is now history. The absence of Florian Wirtz, their brightest star, was a hammer blow before the game even began.
Xabi Alonso’s men buzzed with early intent, but Bayern’s suffocating press turned that energy into chaos. Patrick Schick missed their best chance, and despite flashes from Jeremie Frimpong, they never truly troubled the Bavarians.
Vincent Kompany’s Bayern are purring. The Bundesliga’s so-called power shift? Bayern just laughed at it. Now, with momentum surging, they’re looking at the big prize lifting the Champions League trophy on home soil in May.
This isn’t just another Bayern run. This feels different. This feels inevitable.
