A key night in the DFB cup has caused Bayern Munich treble talk to gain more and more significance. Bayern Munich won RB Leipzig 2-0 to make it to the semi-finals after six years of absence. The victory ended a period of prolonged waiting and hope within the team.
The quarter-final had been a tense and technical one. Leipzig was a defensive and an attacking player. Bayern stayed patient. The breakthrough was made only after an hour. Harry Kane came up and coolly scored a penalty. They earned the spot-kick when Josip Stanišić had been fouled by Maarten Vandevoordt.
The latter objective shifted the tide. Bayern appeared to be more confident and dominated the possession. Leipzig attempted to counter but he had difficulties in breaking the shape of Bayern. Further on, Luis Diaz made a two-goal advantage. His goal clinched the outcome and ensured Bayern lasted in the final four.
The DFB Cup is not the only thing that is important about this victory. Bayern also is well in the game of champions league. They have already secured a direct spot in the round 16. They are still contending the title in the Bundesliga. These reasons have sparked again the debate on a potential treble.
After the game, Harry Kane responded to such discussions. The captain of England remained on the ground. He said it was not impossible, but beware of complacency. Kane emphasized that there is a long way to go with the season. His message was clear. A victory is not a campaign.
In a bigger perspective, Bayern appear to be balanced and centered. Kane is still a big moment producer. The team is building the momentum when needed. The other aspect in knockout games such as this one is experience.
Bayern Munich triple dream is on. However, discipline will have the final say. Provided the same approach is upheld by Bayern, trophies in various tournaments are no longer far-fetched.
