Within an hour of that magnificent goal, the club moved to sack two long-term executives in Oliver Kahn and Hasan Salihamidzic.

He said: «I would like to celebrate with you, but unfortunately I can't be with you today because the club has forbidden me.» Kahn joined Bayern as a player in 1994, remaining for 14 seasons and making over 600 appearances during an iconic career. He joined Bayern's board in 2019 and became CEO in 2021 as a replacement for the outgoing Karl-Heinz Rummenigge. The legendary former Germany goalkeeper's absence from the stands on Saturday was noted immediately, but the club told reporters that he was suffering from 'flu and could not attend the match.

His time as CEO has seen the club continue to dominate German football, winning the league in each of his three seasons in the role, but they have continued to struggle in Europe. Jan-Christian Dreesen, previously the club's chief finance officer since 2013, has been appointed as Kahn's successor. Bayern confirmed the rumours that the duo had been dismissed in a rather bloodless statement.
