Celebrate like a champion: You can already secure the new Double collection line in our fanshop!

Flick was 21 years young when he celebrated winning the German title for the first time. On 3 May 1986, a 5-2 victory over Stuttgart in the cup final secured the Munich team the Double. 24 years later Flick was ready again to repeat this act - this time as coach. An outstanding second half of the season secured FCB the league title. In the cup, the team didn't falter and beat Leverkusen's Werkself 4-2 in Berlin's Olympic Stadium.

David Alaba became the defensive leader of the Munich team under Flick's leadership.
