Bayern break record in a 5-0 rout of St. Pauli
All of Germany knew it would happen on this game day. That the Bundesliga would get a new record, that an achievement more than half a century old would go down in history. And so it did. Bayern used Matchday 29 and their trip to St. Pauli (0–5) to salute an old, mighty generation and elevate a new, dominant one that could become timeless. The Bavarians of Udo Lattek, featuring Franz Beckenbauer, Gerd Muller, Uli Hoeness and Paul Breitner, scored 101 goals in the 1971/72 Bundesliga season. That number had remained untouchable—until now. Vincent Kompany has turned Bayern into the most powerful attacking force in Europe. This new Bayern has surpassed the old guard and now sits on 105 league goals with five matches still to play. Who knows where they’ll stop?105 – Der FC Bayern München schoss 105 Tore in dieser Bundesliga-Saison, neuer Saison-Rekord eines Teams in der BL-Historie.
