FC Bayern have secured their 35th German championship ahead of schedule with a 4-2 win over VfB Stuttgart, causing a stir at home and abroad. For Lothar Matthäus, one thing is clear: Munich are currently the measure of all things in world soccer
In his column for Sky, the 1990 World Cup winner had clear words to say: „This championship is one of the most commanding that FC Bayern has ever celebrated,“ emphasized the 65-year-old, backing Joshua Kimmich’s statements
Four matchdays before the end of the season and with a 15-point lead over Borussia Dortmund, Bayern have dominated the league like rarely before. For Matthäus, this is no coincidence, but an expression of the exceptional quality in the squad and impressive stability in the game
„In my opinion, Bayern are the best team in the world at the moment,“ the TV pundit made clear – a statement that impressively underlines Munich’s current form
But that’s not all: Matthäus also believes that the record champions can go all the way in the remaining competitions. „I have no doubt that Bayern will progress in the DFB Cup in Leverkusen and in the Champions League semi-final against PSG,“ he said
A confident prediction – especially in view of the quality of the opponents. Both Bayer Leverkusen and Paris Saint-Germain are among the strongest teams in Europe

A decisive factor for Matthäus‘ optimism is the team’s mental state. „Bayern doesn’t let any pressure get to them,“ he explained, emphasizing that the team always finds the right answer in critical moments
This resilience was also evident on the international stage recently, when Munich found solutions and proved their class even in difficult match situations
Should Bayern win both the DFB Cup semi-final in Leverkusen and the Champions League clash against PSG, they would be just two games away from their third treble in the club’s history – after 2013 and 2020
The starting position is promising and, if Matthäus has his way, there is currently a lot to suggest that FC Bayern could crown its already historic season with another milestone.
