Relive the Glory: FC Bayern’s Last Six Supercup Triumphs
For FC Bayern Munich, the German Supercup has never just been another game — it has become a stage for dominance, resilience, and the reaffirmation of their status as the country’s most successful football club. Over the last decade, Bayern’s journey in the Supercup has been marked by defining performances, iconic goals, and moments that set the tone for entire seasons. Their last six victories in the competition tell a story not just of trophies won, but of a club that thrives on winning when it matters most.
Bayern’s 2016 Supercup win over Borussia Dortmund was more than a trophy — it was a declaration. Coming off a domestic double, Bayern stepped into the new campaign with a point to prove. Goals from Arturo Vidal and Thomas Müller sealed the deal in a 2-0 win. It was Carlo Ancelotti’s first trophy in charge, and it set the tone for his reign at the Allianz Arena.
The following year, Bayern repeated the feat against Dortmund in a thrilling contest. The game ended 2-2, forcing a dramatic penalty shootout. Joshua Kimmich’s miss threatened to derail Bayern, but goalkeeper Sven Ulreich’s heroics turned the tide. The 5-4 shootout victory proved that Bayern not only had quality, but also nerves of steel.
Fast forward to 2020, and Bayern were on top of the world. Having just completed a historic treble under Hansi Flick, the Bavarians carried that unstoppable form into the Supercup. Facing Dortmund yet again, Bayern edged a 3-2 thriller, with Joshua Kimmich scoring the decisive winner. It wasn’t just a trophy — it was confirmation of their supremacy in German football.
In 2021, Bayern faced a Dortmund side reinvigorated by Erling Haaland’s rise. But Bayern had Robert Lewandowski, and he delivered in spectacular fashion. A brace from the Polish striker, combined with Thomas Müller’s goal, gave Bayern a 3-1 win. It was Julian Nagelsmann’s first silverware with the club, and a sign that even amidst transition, Bayern remained the team to beat.
When Bayern met RB Leipzig in the 2022 edition, many saw it as a test of how the Bundesliga champions would cope without Lewandowski. The response was emphatic. Goals from Jamal Musiala, Sadio Mané, and Leroy Sané inspired a thrilling 5-3 win. A new era was beginning, but Bayern’s grip on the Supercup stayed firm.
In 2023, Bayern extended their dominance once again, with another Supercup victory that showcased both experience and youth. Jamal Musiala shone, Matthijs de Ligt marshaled the defense, and Bayern lifted the trophy with authority. For fans, it was yet another reminder that when it comes to German football, Bayern’s hunger for silverware never fades.
Six triumphs, six different stories, but one consistent theme: FC Bayern Munich’s relentless pursuit of glory. Whether through penalty drama, individual brilliance, or overwhelming attacking firepower, Bayern’s last six Supercup wins are a testament to their winning DNA. For the Bavarians, lifting the Supercup isn’t just tradition — it’s proof that their dynasty remains alive and unshakable.
