The Bayern Munich Frauen trounced VfL Wolfsburg 4-0 in the DFB-Pokal on Thursday in a convincing fashion.
Goals from Georgia Stanway, Pernille Harder, Momoko Tanikawa, and Arianna Caruso powered the effort, while Ena Mahmutovic earned a clean sheet.
Afterward, the team received rave reviews from club executives (via FCBayern.com):
Herbert Hainer (FC Bayern president): “Congratulations on another double – FC Bayern Women are making history almost every week at the moment. The cup win rounds off an absolutely
outstanding season, in which, in addition to historic sporting successes, attendance records were set and the Champions League final was within reach. Congratulations to Bianca Rech, coach José Barcala, captain Glódís Viggósdóttir and the team, and everyone who contributes to this ongoing success story.”
Jan-Christian Dreesen (FC Bayern CEO): “Unbeaten in the Bundesliga, and now back-to-back doubles for the first time in the club’s history – we are delighted with our FC Bayern Women’s impressive journey. Our new coach José Barcala has seamlessly carried on the successful work of his predecessor. The overall development under the management of Bianca Rech pleases us all and will reach new dimensions in the long term with the expansion of Sportpark Unterhaching. We are set for the future.”
Max Eberl (FC Bayern board member for sport): “There’s only one thing harder in sport than winning titles – and that’s defending them. The fact that FC Bayern Women have claimed the double again cements their position as a top team. Great credit to Bianca Rech and her team, to our coach José Barcala for his impressive debut season, and to all the players. The trophy collection is growing – and we’re sure that this team will remain hungry for more.”
As the women’s game continues to grow, Bayern Munich is continuing to push its program. The recent investment into Sportpark Unterhaching is another example of the club attempting to up its resources for the Frauen.
For now, though, the team is busy celebrating its DFB-Pokal championship — another great feat for the Bayern Munich women and one that clinched a domestic double.
