The Statistic that Has Barcelona Fans Dreaming of a Treble!
FC Barcelona delivered a stunning 4-1 victory against Bayern Munich in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League. This dominant performance not only thrilled fans but also sparked excitement due to an intriguing statistic: every time Barcelona has defeated Bayern by three goals or more, they have gone on to win the treble.
In this match, Raphinha stole the show with a brilliant hat-trick, while Robert Lewandowski added the fourth goal, marking a memorable reunion with his former team.
Historically, Barcelona has achieved similar victories over Bayern twice before, both leading to treble-winning seasons. The first instance was in the 2008-2009 campaign, when Pep Guardiola’s side won 4-0 in the quarterfinals at Camp Nou, eventually claiming the Champions League, La Liga, and Copa del Rey.
The second came in the 2014-2015 season, when the legendary “MSN” trio of Messi, Suárez, and Neymar secured a 3-0 win in the semifinals. Barcelona went on to lift the Champions League trophy again, along with domestic league and cup triumphs.
Now, with this impressive result against Vincent Kompany’s Bayern, Barça fans are daring to dream once more. Could this be the start of another historic treble-winning season for the Catalan giants?
