Bayern Munich is closing in on an exceptional attacking feat in the Bundesliga. The Bavarian club has already netted 79 goals in just 21 matchdays this season under the guidance of Belgian coach Vincent Kompany.

Bayern's goal machine aims for a feat unseen since 1972

Thanks to this impressive finishing in front of goal, the "Rekordmeister" is edging ever closer to matching their club record set in the 1971-1972 season, when they reached the milestone of 101 goals—a mark that has stood unchallenged for over five decades.

Despite this electrifying run, Kompany has sought to put the numbers chase into perspective. Following their commanding 5-1 win over Hoffenheim last Sunday, he stated: "It's not a priority for me," emphasizing that his main focus remains on clinching the Bundesliga title.

At the top of the table with a six-point lead over Borussia Dortmund and with 13 matchdays still to play, Bayern's objective is clear: maintain their grip on first place and march steadily towards the championship, all while keeping an eye on the chance to shatter a historic record that has endured for more than half a century.
