Bayern Munich closed out their 2025-26 season with a domestic double after defeating Stuttgart 3-0 in the DFB-Pokal final.

Harry Kane was the star of the show for Bayern at Olympiastadion Berlin, scoring a hat-trick in the second half as Bayern won the competition for the first time since 2020.

It was an unexpectedly quiet first half between the two top-scoring teams in the Bundesliga this season, with Deniz Undav hitting the side-netting from an acute angle early on before Kane was denied a penalty on the stroke of half-time.

Stuttgart started the second half on the front foot, but fell behind against the run of play. Michael Olise dribbled to the byline on the right wing and his deflected cross was headed past Alexander Nubel by Kane in the 55th minute.

After a stoppage in play, caused by the smoke of the flares from the Bayern fans, Konrad Laimer missed a great opportunity to double their lead as he fired over after Luis Diaz's initial attempt was kept out by Nubel.

Nevertheless, Bayern got their second in the 80th minute. Nine seconds after Kane struck the woodwork from distance, the England captain brilliantly took in a pass from Diaz and curled into the bottom-right corner.

And Kane's masterclass was not over, as he completed his treble from the penalty spot in stoppage time after Olise's centre stuck the arm of Angelo Stiller.

Data Debrief: Kane wraps up impressive season in style

Kane is just the fourth player to score a hat-trick in a DFB-Pokal final, after Uwe Seeler in 1963 (Hamburg), Roland Wohlfarth in 1986 (Bayern) and Robert Lewandowski in 2012 (Borussia Dortmund).

Following his treble here, Kane has now scored 61 goals for Bayern this season (not including the Club World Cup) in 51 games across all competitions, with 10 of those coming in the DFB-Pokal.

Only Gerd Muller in 1976-77 (11) has scored more goals for Bayern in a single edition of the competition, while Kane is the third player to score in every round of the DFB-Pokal in a season after Dieter Muller in 1976-77 and Dirk Kurtenbach in 1986-87.

He has also scored eight goals against Stuttgart this season, a feat he has never before achieved – neither for Bayern nor Tottenham across all competitions in a single season against any one opponent.

Overall, Bayern produced 2.36 expected goals (xG) from 11 shots to Stuttgart's 0.36 from eight attempts after a dominant second-half display from Vincent Kompany's side.
