Who did Bayern beat 9 0?

A Historic 9-0 Victory for Bayern München

When football fans look back at the biggest scoring nights in European competition, Bayern München has a long and storied history of putting opponents to the sword. Long before modern goal-fests filled the headlines, the German powerhouse delivered one of their most dominant continental displays in the autumn of 1972.

On October 24, 1972, during the European Cup second round first leg, Bayern hosted Cypriot side Omonia at the Olympiastadion. Led by club legends like Gerd Müller and Franz Beckenbauer, the Bavarian side put on an absolute masterclass, crushing their opponents with a resounding 9-0 victory.

That legendary performance stood for decades as the benchmark for the club's largest margins of victory on the European stage. While modern squads continue to light up the scoreboard in thrilling UEFA Champions League encounters—such as their unforgettable nine-goal nights decades later—the 1972 rout of Omonia remains a foundational milestone in Bayern's rich European legacy.
