why tf do Bayern have to play the best teams early in the tournament…
Champions League 22/23 we (I’d say the 2nd best team in the world) played prime Manchester City, one of the best teams ever, in the Quaterfinals.
Champions League 23/24 we get prime arsenal, prime city and prime Real Madrid in our side of the bracket while Dortmund cruised through to the final. This year probably caused me the most pain as a football fan, as we got embarrassed by Leverkusen in the league, lost to a 3rd division side in the cup and fumbled a lead in stoppage against Real Madrid in the cl semis.
DFB Pokal (German domestic cup) 24/25 we draw Leverkusen in the ROUND OF 16. And then ofc Neuer smashes into a forward, getting a red card. We end up losing.
Club World Cup 24/25 we get PSG in the Quarterfinal. Nothing more to be said.
