Under Felix Magath, Bayern Munich secured another domestic double, winning both the Bundesliga and DFB-Pokal. The squad, featuring leaders like Oliver Kahn, Michael Ballack, Roy Makaay, Bastian Schweinsteiger, and Philipp Lahm, blended experience with emerging talent. In the league, Bayern’s consistency and defensive strength saw them finish comfortably ahead of Hamburg, sealing back-to-back titles. The DFB-Pokal triumph came with a 1–0 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt. However, their Champions League campaign ended in disappointment with a Round of 16 defeat to AC Milan. It was Ballack’s final season before leaving for Chelsea, marking the end of an era.
