As Bundesliga runner-up, Bayern qualified for the UEFA Cup and was drawn in the first round to the Irish club Cork City. After a 1-1 remis at Musgrave Park, Bayern promoted to the next round with a 2–0 win at home. But the team was eliminated in the very next round after losing 3-6 on aggregate against Boldklubben 1903 from Denmark. The 2-6 loss in Copenhagen was the highest defeat in any European competition for the club to this date.[1]

Following a disastrous Bundesliga campaign finishing at the 10th position after two changes of the head coach (Jupp Heynckes was replaced by Søren Lerby and Lerby by Erich Ribbeck) and also failing in the second round of the DFB-Pokal, Bayern missed to compete in any UEFA sanctioned competitions for the first time in club history since 1978-79.

After a stabilization at the Bundesliga by finishing as runner-up behind Werder Bremen, Bayern returned after a one-year absence to European competitions. Still, the club failed to qualify for the redesigned UEFA Champions League but earned the right to participate in the UEFA Cup. In the first round, the team met Dutch club FC Twente and won a spectacular match in Enschede 4-3, resulting in an 7-3 on aggregate. But as two years before, Bayern was eliminated in the second round of the competition and once more against club from the British isles. Norwich City won the match in the Olympiastadion 2-1 and reached a 1-1 remis at Carrow Road. With that, Bayern again dropped out against a seemingly easy opponent.

As German champion and with new, highly decorated head coach Giovanni Trapattoni, Bayern qualified for the first time for the UEFA Champions League in its format since 1992. They were drawn into group B along with Paris St.-Germain, Spartak Moscow and Dynamo Kyiv. The team had several difficulties, losing both matches against the French (who finished with the maximum of 12 points) and two draws against Spartak. Bayern secured the second place and the qualification for the knock-out stage on the last matchday. In the quarter-finals, the team met Swedish champions IFK Göteborg at home in the first leg; 46.000 spectators saw a rather uninspired 0-0. With and 2-2 in Gothenburg, Bayern promoted to the next round by away goals rule. There they met the later champions AFC Ajax to renew the rivalry of the 1970s. Again, the team played 0-0 at home in the first leg but was defeated clearly in Amsterdam 5-2 by the young Dutch team.


In the previous Bundesliga season, Bayern had several problems which led to a disappointing sixth-place finish. As fifth-placed Mönchengladbach qualified for the Cup Winners' Cup, the club received their UEFA Cup berth. Bayern appointed Werder Bremen manager Otto Rehhagel and new players for around €10m, notably Jürgen Klinsmann, Andreas Herzog and Ciriaco Sforza. This combination of highly reputable coach and succesful players was called Dream Team by the media.[2] As Bayern's players frequently appeared in the gossip pages of the press rather than the sports pages during this time, the nickname FC Hollywood was given for the club in addition to an extremely high expectancy by the fans.[3] Bayern's UEFA Cup-campaign started with and 0-1 defeat at home against Lokomotiv Moscow, but a clear 5-0 in the second leg secured the promotion to the next round. In the second round, the team won both matches against Scottish team Raith Rovers by 4-1 on aggregate. Portugese top-flight Benfica became the opponent in the round of 16. At home, an excellent match was shown by the Bavarians; in particular Klinsmann who scored all four goals for the 4-0 win. He also scored twice in Lisbon, pushing his team into the quarter-finals by 7-1 on aggregate. After that, the team returned to the British isles, facing Premier League-club Nottingham Forest. A close 2-1 at home was followed by a impressive 5-1 at City Ground. The semi-finals had a touch of Champions League-flair when the club was drawn to Barcelona. 2-2 at home was not seen as favorable position for the sceond leg, but at Camp Nou Bayern showed an excellent performance by beating Barca 2-1. In the finals – with new head coach Franz Beckenbauer – the team met Girondins Bordeaux who eliminated Sparta Prague in the previous round. In both matches, Bayern controlled most of the game resulting in a 5-1 on aggregate. The UEFA Cup-trophy was handed over to the club for the first time in history and it became the third club to win all three UEFA competitions (after Juventus in 1985 and Ajax in 1992). Klinsmann set a new goalscoring record of 15 goals in 12 matches during the competition, an achievement that stood until 2011.[4] Nevertheless, the disappointment outweighed by the club officials describing the title as Cup der Verlierer (cup of the losers).[5] Beckenbauer later said that his statement was unreasonably at that time, winning the cup is attractive but fades against the Champions League.[6]

In the 1995–96 Bundesliga, Bayern finished as runner-up and again missed to qualify for the Champions League. The new and old head coach for this season became Giovanni Trapattoni. Bayern's European campaign in the UEFA Cup was interrupted early as Valencia won clearly with 3-1 on aggregate. Thereby, the defending champions were eliminated in the first round of the competition. However, Bayern won the German championship at the end of the season.

After two season playing in the UEFA Cup, Bayern qualified for the this year's edition of the Champions League. They were drawn into group E along with Paris St.-Germain, Beşiktaş JK and IFK Göteborg. Although losing two matches (in Paris and at home against Göteborg), Bayern finished first in the group earning 12 points and promoting to the next round. In the quarter-finals they met their national rivals and defending champions Borussia Dortmund. Both matches were characterized by tactics and no goal was scored in 180 minutes.[7] Stéphane Chapuisat ended Bayern's European campaign with a goal in the 109th minute of the second leg at Westfalenstadion.

The 1999 final's line up ahead of kick-off.

Following a disappointing 1997-98 campaign, Ottmar Hitzfeld - Dortmund’s former coach who won the 1997 final - became head coach of the team. After a successful qualification over FK Obilic, Bayern was drawn into a group of death together with Manchester United and the Spanish champions Barcelona. After a surprising loss against Danish champions Brøndby and a draw at home against Manchester United, Bayern set two clear victories over the Spanish side. On the last matchday, Bayern secured the first position in the group with a 1-1 draw in Manchester. In the round of 16, Bayern was drawn to their rivals Kaiserslautern who entered the campaign as German champions. Bayern won both matches clear with 6-0 on aggregate. In the semi-finals, they played against Dynamo Kyiv who kicked out Real Madrid. After 3-3 in Kyiv and a 1-0 home win, Bayern qualified for the final the first time after 12 years. In the final played in Barcelona, Bayern met again Manchester United. This final became one of the most dramatic matches in football history. Bayern led early after Mario Basler scored a free-kick in the 6th minute and controlled the match over most the time. In injury time, Teddy Sheringham and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer scored goals after corners by David Beckham to force Bayern’s Mutter aller Niederlagen (mother of all defeats).[8]

In the following season, Bayern qualified as German champion directly for the group stage which was expanded to 32 teams for the first time. They were drawn into Group F alongside Valencia, PSV Eindhoven and Rangers. After reaching the second place, they entered the second group stage where they were drawn against Real Madrid, Dynamo Kyiv and Rosenborg. In the two matches against Real Madrid, Bayern showed an unexpected performance, beating the Spanish side 4-2 – which became to date the Real's biggest loss at home in the Champions League[9] – and 4-1. These were also the last matches of Lothar Matthäus before moving to New York MetroStars. In the quarter-finals, Bayern was drawn against the Portuguese champions FC Porto. After a disappointing 1-1 in Porto, Bayern promoted with a 2-1 win at home. In the next round, they met again Real Madrid. Unfortunately, they could not repeat their performance shown in the group stage. After a 0-2 loss in Madrid, their 2-1 win at home was not enough to reach the final.

Winner's medal from the 2000–01 UEFA Champions League

The 2000-01 campaign started in the first group stage with matches against the French side Paris Saint-Germain and the two nordic teams Rosenborg from Norway and Helsingborg from Sweden. Bayern finished at the first position and therefore qualified for the second group stage where they met Arsenal, Lyon and Spartak Moscow. They again finished at the top gathering 13 points. The clear 0-3-defeat on the 5th matchday in Lyon infuriated president Beckenbauer, accusing him the team to play Altherren-Fußball.[10] In the quarter final, Bayern was drawn against Manchester United which caused German media to call these matches Zeit für Revanche (time for revenge) referencing to the dramatic defeat two years before. Bayern reached the semi-finals in a sovereign way, winning both matches. In the next round, they again had time for revenge, meeting the Spanish team Real Madrid for the fifth and sixth time in the last two editions of the competition. As against Manchester United, they won both matches (1-0 away and 2-1 at home). Bayern reached the final by knocking out the competition's last two champions. In the final they met Valencia, the runner-up of the previous season at San Siro. The Spanish side scored a penalty early in the match but Stefan Effenberg equalized in the 50th minute. As no further goals felt in regular and extra time, the penalty shoot-out determined the winner. Bayern’s goalkeeper Oliver Kahn became the man of the match by saving Mauricio Pellegrino's kick. 9 of 14 players who played in the 1999 final won the this years' competition. It was also Bayern's first win of the tournament after 25 years.

With winning the Champions League-title, Bayern earned the right to participate in the UEFA Super Cup. This was the third attempt to win the trophy for the first time after losing the 1975- and 1976-editions to Dynamo Kyiv and Anderlecht. Unfortunately, also this match was lost. Liverpool lifted the trophy after a 3-2 win in Monaco. Just before the match, the draw for the group stage was carried out, putting Bayern to Sparta Prague, Feyenoord and Spartak Moscow. Bayern won the group without losing any match and fnished first with 14 points. Only Barcelona received more points than Bayern. In the second group stage, the team faced the Portuguese champions Boavista, the French title-holder Nantes and - for the fourth time in four years - Manchester United. Bayern ended up at the second position, leaving the English side at the top of the table. After the first two matchdays of the second group stage, Bayern participated at the Intercontinental Cup in Tokyo. The won the title for the second time after 1976 ahead of Copa Libertadores winners Boca Juniors on 27th November, crowning one of the best years in club history by winning the Bundesliga, Champions League and Intercontinental Cup. In the Champions League-campaign, Bayern was drawn to Real Madrid in the quarter-finals. The lost to the eventual winners after 2-1 at home and 0-2 in Madrid.

The year 2002 marks a relatively strong change for the club. Several key players of the last years - such as Stefan Effenberg, Paulo Sérgio or Carsten Jancker - left the club and new players where signed, notably Michael Ballack, Sebastian Deisler and Zé Roberto. After finishing third in the previous Bundesliga season, Bayern had to start in the third qualifying stage of the UEFA Champions League. They faced Partizan Belgrade and won both matches. The following group stage was one of the worst in Bayern's history, losing four matches (both to Milan and La Coruña) and two remis (to Lens). They therefore finished the group at the last position and also not qualify for the 2002-03 UEFA Cup. This was the first time since 1996-97 that Bayern did not compete in any European competition in the second half of the season.

Although Bayern was eliminated early in their European campaign, they won both national titles and therefore qualified for the seventh time in a row for the UEFA Champions League group stage. They were drawn into group A to Anderlecht, Celtic and Lyon. In the match against Lyon they met the club legend Giovane Élber who transfered to the French champions at the beginning of the season. His "successor" became Roy Makaay who played against Bayern in the previous season. The team finished at the second place behind Lyon and was drawn in the round of 16 (the first season the second group stage was abolished) against their well-known rivals Real Madrid. Again, Bayern ended up early after 1-1 and 0-1. This was also the first season since 1994-95 that Bayern did not won any domestic or international trophy. The poor performance resulted in change of the head coach, Felix Magath replaced Ottmar Hitzfeld at the beginning of the next season.

In the following season, Bayern participated in group C of UEFA Champions League, qualified as runner-up of the previous Bundesliga season. They were drawn to Juventus which marked this first match of the both national record champions in a European competition. They also played against Ajax and Maccabi Tel Aviv, finishing at the second position. In the round of 16, they faced the English champions Arsenal who finished their national campaign in the previous season without a single defeat. Bayern won 3-2 on aggregate, marking the first promotion against a "top-club" after the semi-finals of 2001. In following round they were drawn to Chelsea. After scoring two away goals at Stamford Bridge (but losing 2-4), Bayern failed to qualify for the next round although they won their last international match at the Olympiastadion 3-2.

Allianz Arena is Bayern's home ground since 2005.

In summer 2005, Bayern moved to their new stadium: The Allianz Arena which was finished for the upcoming FIFA World Cup, holding a seating capacity of 66,000 for international matches. Bayern started their European campaign against Rapid Wien and welcomed Club Brugge as their first opponent in the new stadium. As in the previous season, the team finished at the second position in the group, again behind the Italian side Juventus. In the round of 16, Bayern had to play again against an Italian club since they were drawn to Milan. After a respectable 1-1 at home, Bayern clearly lost the away match 1-4 and thus was eliminated.

The following Champions League season began with a 4-0 win over Spartak Moscow. Bayern also won their away match against Inter Milan on the second matchday by two late goals of Claudio Pizarro and Lukas Podolski. With a 1-1 draw at home, it became first positive result against an Italian club in the last five years. In addition, Bayern earned the first place in the group since the 2001-02 season after losing none of the six matches. Because of weak performances in the Bundesliga, Ottmar Hitzfeld returned as head coach in February 2007. In the round of 16, the team was drawn to their long-standing rivals Real Madrid, resulting in the sixth meeting in eight years. The first match in Madrid was an intensive one, Real hold a 3-1 lead until Mark van Bommel kept Bayern alive with a goal in the 88th minute. Spanish media reported a comeback of La Bestia Negra (the black beast). In the second leg, Roy Makaay scored the fastest goal in Champions League history after 10.12 seconds played in the match.[11] Bayern controlled the match and promoted on away goals to the next round after a final score of 2-1. In the quarter-finals, they met the later winners Milan. After a promising 2-2 remis by two goals of Daniel van Buyten, Milan controlled the match in Munich and won 2-0.

Following a disappointing Bundesliga campaign, finishing fourth and therefore missing the qualification for the Champions League after ten consecutive participations; Bayern underwent a major restructuring of the team. They spent around € 90M for ten new players, notably Franck Ribéry, Luca Toni and Miroslav Klose. Nine players left the club, in particular club legend Mehmet Scholl (retired), Roy Makaay (undisclosed to Feyenoord), Hasan Salihamidzic (free transfer to Juventus) and Owen Hargreaves (€ 17M to Manchester United). At that day, this was Bayern’s highest transfer deficit in history. Bayern started their European campaign against Belenenses and promoted with 3-0 on aggregate to the group stage which was played in a single round-robin format. They faced Red Star and Braga away, and Bolton Wanderers and Aris at home. Bayern finished first in the group with two wins and two draws. After clear victories over Aberdeen and Anderlecht, Bayern was drawn against Getafe in the quarter-finals. Only drawing 1-1 at home, the second leg became a legendary match when Franck Ribery equalized in the 89th minute. In extra time, Getafe scored early in the 91th and 93th minute. But in the 115th and 120th minute, Luca Toni scored twice; meaning that Bayern promoted to the next round on away goals rule. In the semi-finals, Bayern faced the Russian champions Zenit. After a weak match at home, resulting in a 1-1 draw; Bayern was clearly defeated by the later champions in Saint Petersburg.

As German champion, Bayern returned to UEFA Champions League after a one-year absence. New head coach of the team became former player Jürgen Klinsmann. Bayern finished first in Group F after unspectacular matches against Lyon, Fiorentina and Steaua Bucuresti. In the round of 16, Bayern set a record in the Champions League era against Sporting CP with winning 12-1 on aggregate. But this years’ European campaign was ended by later champions Barcelona who defeated the Bavarians clearly with 4-0 at Camp Nou. German media reported that Bayern is still not on Europe’s top-level. After also getting behind Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga, Jürgen Klinsmann was sacked before the end of the season.

With start of the new season, Bayerns head coach became Louis van Gaal. The club made similar high investments as two years before, notably signing Mario Gómez from Stuttgart and Arjen Robben from Real Madrid. Following the Champions League group stage drawing, Bayern was put into Group A along with Bordeaux, Juventus and Maccabi Haifa. After a clear win over the Isreali club, Bayern played only 0-0 at home against Juventus. On matchdays 3 and 4, Bayern lost to Bordeaux; leaving the club at third position with five points behind the second-placed Italians. On the next matchday, Bayern won at home with an unspectacular 1-0 over Haifa. In the parallel match, Juventus lost to Bordeaux; keeping chances alive to promote to the round of 16. A clear 4-1 victory in Turin, Bayern pushed by Juventus on the second position in the group. The team mentioned that this match was the key event for the later participation in the final. In the round of 16, Bayern was drawn to Fiorentina who finished their group at the first position with 15 points. After a 2-1 win at home, Bayern promoted on away goals rule. In the quarter-finals, they met their old rivals Manchester United. In inquiry time, Ivica Olic scored 2-1 after an intensive match. As in the previous round, Bayern lost 2-3 at Old Trafford but promoted on away goals rule. Robben's stunning volley against in the 74th minute from the edge of the area into the corner of the net marked one of the most beautiful goals in Champions League history. For the first time since 2002, Bayern advanced to the semi-finals of the competition. After two clear victories over Lyon, the team reached the final which was lost to Internazionale at Santiago Bernabéu Stadium.

In the following edition, Bayern was drawn in a group with Roma, Basel and CFR Cluj which was considered as feasible. The team earned 15 points and finished first, losing only the match in Rome. In the first knock-out-round, Bayern again met their last years’ final opponents Internazionale. After a promising match at San Siro with late winning goal by Mario Gomez, Bayern controlled their second leg match at home for most of time. Until Wesley Sneijder’s equalizer in the 63th minute they held a lead of 2-1. The heart-breaking goals were scored by Goran Pandev in the 88th minute, promoting the Italian side on away goals rule. Bayern’s European campaign therefore was interrupted early.

The Allianz Arena in Champions League final livery

The 2011-12 season marked a very special one for the club as the final was hosted by Bayern's home ground which was declared as a "duty to reach" by president Uli Hoeneß.[12] The club had severe problems throughout the previous Bundesliga campaign to qualify for the Champions League and therefore sacked head coach Louis van Gaal during the season. On the penultimate matchday, Bayern secured the spot for entering the play-off round and were later drawn against Swiss vice champions Zürich. With a clear 3-0 on aggreagte Bayern finally entered with the new head coach Jupp Heynckes the group state and were drawn to Napoli, Manchester City and Villarreal. This was the first time since 2002-03 that the team was drawn into a group with teams only from the top five associations in Europe. The group stage was performed very well with only one defeat (in Manchester) and one drawn (against Napoli) receiving the first place. In the round of 16, the teams was drawn against Basel. The first leg at St. Jakob-Park was difficult, Bayern lost 0-1 after a late goal in the 87th minute. In contrast, the second leg became one of the highest victories in history (7-0). In the quarter-finals, Bayern met Olympique Marseille and won both matches in a sovereign way by 4-0 on aggregate. In the semi-finals, the team was drawn against there old rivals Real Madrid. The first leg at the Allianz Arena was an intensive match with an early goal by Frank Ribéry which was equalized in the second half by Mesut Özil. Gómez' scored in the 90th minute for Bayern to win the match. On week later in Madrid, Real led early by two goals from Cristiano Ronaldo. Arjen Robben shortened the lead with a penalty in the 27th minute. With no further goals in full- and extra-time, a penatly shoot-out has to made the decision. Bastian Schweinsteiger set the final penatly that advanced Bayern to the final which was called Finale dahoam (Bavarian for "final at home") by the German media.[13] In the final, Bayern faced Chelsea who eliminated title-holder Barcelona in the semi-finals. The Bavarians controlled most of the match, pushed Chelsea to limit at most of the time but missed to score a goal. The lead was taken in the 83rd minute by Thomas Müller but Didier Drogba equalized five minutes later. In extra-time Bayern earned a penalty, but Robben's shot was saved by Petr Cech. As no team was ahead after extra-time, penalty shoot-out has to made the decision. Chelsea's Juan Mata missed the first shot, giving Bayern an advantage; but the attempts of Olic and Schweinsteiger were saved and finally Drogba decided the match converting it to a Drama dahoam for the Bavarians.[14] It was also only the club's second defeat to an English team in Munich.[15] In addition to this fierce defeat, Bayern also missed to win the title in the domestic championship and cup.

Opening ceremony of the German final at Wembley.[16]

Although only runner-up in the Bundesliga, the team qualified for the group stage of the following edition and was drawn into a group with Valencia, BATE Borisov and Lille. Bayern again finished first in the group earning 13 points, but lost the away match to the supposedly weakest team of Borisov 1-3. In the round of 16, Bayern had to play as in the year before against Arsenal. The first leg saw a clear 3-1 victory for the Bavarians, but the match at home became quite difficult. After an early goal in the 3rd minute by Olivier Giroud, Bayern got the game better under control. In the 86th minute, Laurent Koscielny scored the second goal which ment that Arsenal would need only one more to promote to the next round but the English did not accomplish this. In the next round, Bayern faced the Italian champions Juventus and won both matches in a sovereign way. The next step to the final was probably the hardest to get, the champions of 2009 and 2011 and to that date the best European team[17]: FC Barcelona. The match became one of the most remarkable in club history. Bayern – to that time newly crowned German champions – dominated the match and produced a magnificent performance to win the match 4-0 becoming Barca's worst defeat since 1997.[18] Despite this comfortable position, the team again outclassed the Catalan team at Camp Nou by winning 3-0.[19] Therewith, Bayern reached the final of the competition for the third time in four years. Their opponent at Wembley became their long-standing rivals Borussia Dortmund[20][21] who eliminated Real Madrid in the other semi-final. The first half-hour of the match was dominated by Dortmund, forcing Manuel Neuer to save several attempts. With beginning of the second half, Bayern controlled the match and scored the first goal in the 60th minute. Only a few minutes later, İlkay Gündoğan scored a penalty after Dante fouled Reus in the penalty area. Only one minute before full-time ends, Robben became the man of the match by scoring the winning goal. After also winning the German cup final, Bayern achieved the treble for the first time in club history.

Celebrations after the first victory in the UEFA Super Cup.

With winning the title, Bayern earned the right to participate at the UEFA Super Cup which was held for the first time in Prague. Their opponent became Chelsea who won the 2012-13 UEFA Europa League, so the match became a revenge for the Champions League-final lost the previous year. After 1-1 in full-time, Eden Hazard scored early in extra-time but Javi Martínez equalized in the 120th minute of the match. As in the final last year, the decision has to be made by penatly shoot-out. This time, the Bavarians scored all of their penalties a won the trophy for the first time in club history after Romelu Lukaku missed. New head coach Pep Guardiola dedicated the title his predecessor Jupp Heynckes. On the day before, the team was drawn into group D with Manchester City, CSKA Moscow and Viktoria Plzen. Bayern won the first five matches in a row, losing only the last home match against the English but remained at the first position as Manchester City missed to score a fourth goal. In the knockout stage, Bayern faced Arsenal. After a souverign 2-0 in London, the team qualified for the next round with a 1-1 remis at home.

The team wearing the FIFA Club World Cup winners badge.

A few days before Christmas, Bayern participated for the first time at the FIFA Club World Cup since its annual inauguration in 2005. In the semi-finals, they won 3-0 against AFC Champions Guangzhou Evergrande from China. As the other semi-final saw a surprising victory by the Moroccon club Raja Casablanca over Copa Libertadores winners Atlético Mineiro, Bayern became a clear favorite for the title. The final was won by goals from Dante and Thiago. Bayern lifted the trophy for the first time in club history and won five of six possible competitions in the year 2013 (losing only the German Supercup to Dortmund). In the quarter-finals, the team had to travel again to the British isles as it was drawn against the English champions Manchester United. With a close 1-1 at Old Trafford, the first half at home ended with 0-0. Patrice Evra scored in the 57th minute for Manchester, but three goals in 17 minutes secured the promotion to the next round. In the semi-finals, Bayern was drawn to Real Madrid who were on the way to win La Décima. The first match in Madrid was close but won by Real with 1-0. In Munich, the Spaniards were clearly dominant, leading at half-time 3-0 and finally promoted with 5-0 on aggregate to this years' final.

In the 2014-15 season, Bayern faced the curious situation that the club was drawn to two of the last years' opponents in the group stage: Manchester City and CSKA Moscow. The third team became the Serie A runner-up Roma. The team won 5 matches, losing the only in Manchester by a goal in overtime from Sergio Agüero. Only Real Madrid (18 points) and Barcelona (15 points) earned more or the same points in the group stage. In the round of 16, the played for the first time against Shakhtar Donetsk from Ukraine. The away match was played at Arena Lviv (Lviv) instead of the regular stadium Donbass Arena (Donetsk) due to the war conditions in Eastern Ukraine. Whereas the first leg ended with a rather uninspired 0-0, Bayern dominated the home match and won 7-0, one of the highest wins in their European record. In the following round, the team was drawn to FC Porto - the first meeting of both clubs since 2000. The first match in Porto saw two early goals by Ricardo Quaresma and the lead was defended by the Portugese team until the end of the match which they won 3-1. Under heavy pressure for the second leg, Bayern peformed brilliant at home winning the match 6-1 and therefore promoting to the next round. The semi-finals saw a meeting of head coach Guardiola with his former team Barcelona. Again, Bayern had to play the away match firstly. For most of the time, the team could hold 0-0 but in the last 15 minutes of the match Barca scored 3 goals by Lionel Messi and Neymar leaving Bayern desperate for reaching the final. In the second leg, two heart-breaking goals by Neymar secured Barca's promotion although they finally lost the match 2-3.

Robbery, the faces of the era.

Again qualified for the Champions League group stage as German champion, Bayern was drawn into group F along with Dinamo Zagreb, Olympiacos and Arsenal. Similar to the last season, they gathered 15 points - losing only the match in London - and set a new club record with scoring 19 goals. In the first knock-out stage they faced Italian champions Juventus. After a 2-2 at Juventus Stadium, Bayern was 2 goals down after 30 minutes. The team had several problems with Juventus' excellecent defenders but Lewandowski scored in the 73th minute which was still not enough to promote to the next round. With a late goal by Müller, Bayern chances revived and pushed the team to a dominant preformance in extra-time resulting in two goals by Thiago and Coman. In the quarter-finals, Bayern was drawn to Benfica which was commonly saw as one of the easiest clubs.

For the fifth season in a row, setting a new club record, they reached the semi-finals after a 1-0 at home and 2-2 at Lisbon. As in the previous two seasons, they again met a Spanish club - this time Atlético Madrid. Both matches became physically hard to play against the team of Diego Simeone. The first leg at Vicente Calderón Stadium was lost as Saúl Ñíguez scored the only one goal in the 11th minute but still Bayern had good chances to reach the final. In a very intensive match at home, Bayern was brought into front by Xabi Alonso but shortly after half-time, Antoine Griezmann equalized for the Spaniards pushing again more pressure to Bayern. The final goal by Lewandowski in the 74th minute was not enough and Atlético promoted by away goals rule. The match was the third time a row that Bayern lost in the semi-finals to a Spanish club[22] and was the last chance for head coach Guardiola to reach the Champions League final with the club, leaving him in Germany as the "Unfinished".[23]

For the new season, Carlo Ancelotti was announced as head coach in December 2015.[24][25]

After a 1-3 loss to Liverpool in the round of 16, German media reported that the generation of the 2010s finally had come to the end.[26]
