World Football Summit: the power of Bayern Munich

During the 2020, he Bayern has been a steamroller, both on the pitch and in the distinctions and recognitions that have been awarded (and remain to be awarded) since the 2019-20 season ended. And it is logical. With a quintet in pocket (Bundesliga, Champions, Pokal, German Super Cup Y European Super Cup), an almost unprecedented scoring average and historical performances such as 8-2 against Barcelona in the quarterfinals of the Champions League, it is difficult for anyone to recognize the merits of any member of another team (player or coach) above of the Bavarian team. So it was in the UEFA Best Player awards, where he Bayern swept, and almost certainly will be in the The Best awards, where Lewandowski is the favorite for the Best Player award and Hansi Flick for the Best Coach award.
