Summary For the final, Bayern Munich was without the services of
Dante and
Luiz Gustavo, who were playing for the
Brazil national team. Additionally,
Mario Gómez, normally a reserve, was given the start over
Mario Mandžukić. Even so, VfB Stuttgart was considered a massive underdog before the match began. Just after half-time, Gómez made it 2–0 when he turned in a
Philipp Lahm cross from the right. At the 61-minute mark, Gómez scored again making the match 3–0 with a low, right-footed shot after the ball was crossed low from the right by Thomas Müller and seemingly putting the game out of reach for Stuttgart, prompting Munich fans to start celebrating in the stands.
Celtic was the first team to accomplish the feat in 1967. Since then,
Ajax (1972),
PSV Eindhoven (1988),
Manchester United (1999),
Barcelona (2009 and 2015) and
Internazionale (2010) have accomplished the feat. Bayern repeated their treble-winning performance in 2020, joining Barça as the only sides to do that twice.
