On July 4, 2020, Bayern Munich lifted the German Cup for a record-extending 20th time after a dominant 4-2 win over Bayer Leverkusen at the Olympiastadion in Berlin, Germany.
The victory marked Bayern's 13th domestic double under the leadership of Hansi Flick, who took over as interim boss in November 2019.
David Alaba gave Bayern the lead with a free kick in the 16th minute, and the team doubled the lead when Joshua Kimmich released Serge Gnabry down the right channel.
Robert Lewandowski then pounced on Manuel Neuer's long ball and let fly a thunderous strike from range to give the Polish striker his 50th goal of the season.
Leverkusen opened their account when Sven Bender headed home at the far post from a corner kick, but it was too little, too late as Lewandowski grabbed a second with a chip over the keeper in the 89th minute.
There was late drama when VAR spotted a handball in the box in stoppage time to award Leverkusen a penalty, but Kai Havertz's consolation strike into the top corner proved to be the final kick of the game.
