Bayern concluded the 2025-2026 Bundesliga season with 122 goals, surpassing the league's 54-year-old record of 101 goals, which they set in the 1971-1972 season. Bayern also achieved the best scoring record across Europe's five top leagues since Torino's 125 goals in 40 matches during the 1947-1948 season.

Kane contributed 36 goals to secure his third consecutive Bundesliga top scorer title. The English forward finished far ahead of runner-up Deniz Undav of Stuttgart, who scored 19 goals. He maintained an impressive scoring efficiency, averaging one goal every 66 minutes in the league.

Kane also made Bundesliga history by becoming the first player to score over 25 goals and win the Golden Boot in each of his first three seasons in the league. Previously, the English striker scored 26 goals in the 2024-2025 season and 36 goals in the 2023-2024 season.

In addition to his 36 goals, Kane also contributed five assists in the Bundesliga this season. The 32-year-old striker, alongside Michael Olise (15 goals, 20 assists) and Luis Diaz (15 goals, 14 assists), formed one of Europe's most effective attacking trios this season.

Yesterday's match also marked the final appearance for Leon Goretzka, Raphael Guerreiro, and Nicolas Jackson at Allianz Arena in a Bayern jersey. Fans gave the trio warm appreciative applause before kickoff.

Meanwhile, Michael Olise was honored as the Bundesliga Player of the Season. German Football League (DFL) CEO Marc Lenz and Steffen Merkel presented the award to the 24-year-old French star before Bayern lifted the Meisterschale (silver plate) on home turf.

The two DFL leaders praised Olise as an entertaining player capable of making a difference. They highlighted his role as a representative face of the Bundesliga over the past two years, thanks to his technique, consistency, and scoring efficiency. The DFL also congratulated Olise on his outstanding performance, affirming he had a breakthrough season with significant domestic and international impact.

Bayern has one final match remaining this season: the German Cup final against Stuttgart on 23/5. Bayern holds the record for winning the German National Cup 20 times, but this marks their first return to the final in six years.
