While Vincent Kompany won the Bundesliga in his first season as Bayern coach, the women’s team has seen its most successful campaign to date. Bayern Frauen won the domestic double for the first time in their history.
Lea Schüller’s hat-trick against Werder Bremen helped Alexander Straus’ team to win the Pokal earlier this month. That was only the second cup triumph in Bayern’s history, and a first in 13 years.
Meanwhile, they won the league for the third successive season this term. On Sunday, they received the trophy after a 3-0 victory over SGS Essen in the final game of the season.
Bayern only lost once in the league, and they ended the season with an eight-point lead over former Frauen-Bundesliga giants VfL Wolfsburg. However, they bow out of Europe in the first knockout stage after a 6-1 aggregate defeat to Lyon.
