Bayern Munich Equal Milan's Historic Milestone With 13-Game Winning Streak
25 October 2025
Match Snapshot
The Bavarian giants extended their dominance by winning away at Borussia Mönchengladbach, levelling a historic benchmark previously set by Milan in 1992-93.
Under coach Vincent Kompany, Bayern sealed a 3-0 victory (0-0 at halftime) at Borussia-Park in the Lower Rhine on Saturday, continuing their hot streak in the Bundesliga and beyond.
This win marks Bayern's 13th straight win across all competitions this season, a feat Milan last achieved in that iconic 1992/93 campaign.
Drama on the Field
The hosts faced an early setback as Jens Kastrop received a red card in the 19th minute after a VAR review, forcing Bayern to chase the game with a man advantage.
Bayern exploited the numerical edge to score through Joshua Kimmich in the 64th minute, Rafael Guerreiro in the 69th, and Lennart Karl with a superb strike in the 81st.
With the win, Bayern prepare for their German Cup clash against Köln on Wednesday at 20:45 CEST, a perfect preface to the Cup tie.
Meanwhile, Eugen Polanski's side continued their difficult start to the season, despite a gritty performance, missing a penalty in the 75th minute when Kevin Stöger struck the post.
Eight rounds into the league, they have yet to win, and their next chance is a Cup match against Karlsruher SC on Tuesday, after which they will return to league duties.
Kompany made six changes from the side that beat Club Brugge 4-0 in the Champions League, while Jonas Örbig started to gain match sharpness ahead of the Köln game, as Manuel Neuer serves a suspension.
Phase of Brilliance
Bayern now ride momentum, with Kompany's system emphasizing build-up from the back, quick transitions, and high pressing, while integrating young talents like Lennart Karl into the first team.
They sit atop the Bundesliga with 24 points from eight wins, and have logged three straight wins in the Champions League, the latest a 4-0 victory over Club Brugge at the Allianz Arena.
The dream of a seventh European Cup remains alive, with Bayern eyeing glory in Europe after lifting the trophy last in 2020 against Paris Saint-Germain.
Sniper punchline: If Bayern keep this pace, the calendar will need a calendar to keep up—and maybe a referee with a sense of humor.
Second punchline: They say defense wins titles, but Bayern's press makes the ball disappear faster than my paycheck on the transfer deadline day.
