FC Bayern have made an impressive return to the big cup stage – and this was duly celebrated immediately after reaching the final. After their success in the semi-final, the Munich team resorted to a special way of celebrating their return to Berlin
Immediately after the final whistle, the Bayern stars presented themselves in special blue shirts with the inscription „Guess who’s back“. A clear message – and at the same time an allusion to the long dry spell in the DFB Cup. Since their triumph in 2020, Munich had had to wait for another appearance in the final
Now the record cup winners are back in the final – and want to finally win the next title in the Olympic Stadium

Striking: The now iconic cockatoo was also part of the celebrations. The figure already played a central role at the championship party and has long since become the team’s unofficial good luck charm
What once began as a spontaneous idea at a party in Munich’s „Käfer“ restaurant has now become an integral part of Bayern culture – including a place on shirts and a pedestal
TV pundit Christoph Kramer also provided a smile. The 2014 World Cup winner commented on the scene with a wink and indirectly addressed Bayern fans. „If you want to buy every T-shirt as a Bayern fan this year, then you’re broke,“ joked Kramer on ZDF. After all, it’s only a matter of time before more versions follow the final shirt – for example, if the title is won
So while the fans can already start thinking about possible new fan merchandise, the team’s focus is clearly on the sporting side of things
After the championship, Bayern now have a great opportunity to go one better in the DFB Cup – and win the next title in what has already been an outstanding season.
