Bayern Munich became the fastest side in Bundesliga history to reach 100 goals in a single season after Lennart Karl’s dramatic stoppage-time winner secured a 3-2 victory away at SC Freiburg on Saturday.

The late strike not only sealed all three points for Vincent Kompany’s side but also brought up Bayern’s 100th league goal of the campaign after just 28 matches - a remarkable milestone that underlines the attacking dominance of this season’s team.
Karl’s decisive finish arrived deep into added time following a sweeping move that began with Joshua Kimmich threading a perfectly weighted pass into the path of Alphonso Davies. The Canadian’s delivery into the area caused chaos before the 18-year-old applied the finishing touch to complete a dramatic turnaround.
For much of the afternoon Bayern had struggled to impose themselves, trailing late into the contest before producing a late surge that ultimately proved decisive. Karl’s intervention, however, ensured the match will be remembered for far more than just the result.
The goal leaves Bayern just one short of matching the Bundesliga’s all-time single-season scoring record of 101 - set by the club themselves during the historic 1971/72 campaign under Udo Lattek - with six matches still remaining.
More significantly, reaching triple figures after only 28 games makes this the quickest any side has hit the landmark in Bundesliga history, highlighting the relentless attacking output produced under Kompany this term.
England captain Harry Kane has led the charge with 31 league goals despite missing the trip to Freiburg, while Luis Díaz (15) and Michael Olise (11) have also played key roles in powering Bayern towards the milestone.
The 1971/72 side, spearheaded by Gerd Müller’s extraordinary haul of 40 goals, has long stood as the benchmark for attacking excellence in Germany’s top flight. Yet with six fixtures still to play and the record within touching distance, this current Bayern team now has a genuine opportunity to write its own chapter in Bundesliga history.
