Muller Marks The End Of An Era As Bayern Clinch Season With Dominant Hoffenheim Win

In a fitting finale to their Bundesliga campaign, Bayern Munich closed the season with a resounding 4-0 away victory over Hoffenheim, highlighted by the final club appearance of a true German football icon — Thomas Muller.

The 35-year-old Bayern legend, who has been the face of consistency and loyalty in Bavarian football, walked off the pitch after his 503rd Bundesliga appearance, placing him 12th on the league’s all-time appearance list. Having scored 248 goals and secured 13 Bundesliga titles alongside two Champions League trophies, Muller’s farewell was laced with emotion, if not goals.

He started the match and played an hour before being replaced by Harry Kane, who capped his debut Bundesliga season with another goal — his 26th in the league — adding a final flourish to a dominant Bayern display.

Magic From Olise and a Missed Chance by Kramaric

The scoring began in the 33rd minute through a moment of brilliance from Michael Olise, who curled a stunning free-kick just inside the post, opening his Bayern account in style.

Despite a history of tormenting Bayern, Hoffenheim’s Andrej Kramaric, the most prolific active Bundesliga scorer against the champions with eight goals, failed to capitalize on a golden one-on-one opportunity against Manuel Neuer, firing straight at the veteran goalkeeper early in the second half.

Kimmich, Gnabry, and Kane Seal It

Bayern quickly punished that miss. Joshua Kimmich doubled the lead when his close-range effort took a deflection that wrong-footed Hoffenheim keeper Oliver Baumann. The visitors extended their advantage further when Serge Gnabry fired low from the edge of the area, before Kane struck late to seal a commanding win.

The match also marked the final Bayern appearance for Eric Dier, who is set to join Monaco on a free transfer this summer. Meanwhile, winger Leroy Sane made a brief appearance from the bench amid speculation about his own possible departure in the coming transfer window.

Champions in Command

Bayern Munich’s campaign ends on a high note, finishing 13 points clear of nearest rivals Bayer Leverkusen, reaffirming their dominance in German football. Despite the defeat, Hoffenheim steered clear of relegation danger, helped in part by Heidenheim’s loss to Werder Bremen.

For Bayern, it’s not just the end of another title-winning season, but the close of a legendary chapter. As Muller exits the stage, he leaves behind a legacy few in football — let alone in Bavaria — will ever match.
