Bayern now eyeing a treble
Granted, that may seem like the football equivalent of the old Dog Bites Man newspaper story. This is Bayern’s 22nd title since the Bundesliga was formed 50 years ago and their 11th in the past 20 years. All the same, this one is a bit special.
To win by 20 points with six matches to go is unprecedented. Bayern have conceded just 13 league goals and after starting with a record run of victories they have now set a record by winning all 11 games since the winter break.
