Haters Particularly Embarrassing Moments

Dead Ends in Breisgau and Magdeburg, Weinheim and Vestenbergsgreuth

Thrashings by SC Freiburg, and three cup exits to amateurs in ten years.

Even against teams like SC Freiburg, Bayern were on the receiving end of proper thrashings in the early 1990s — for example, a 1-5 defeat at SC Freiburg on matchday 2 of the 1994/95 season.

Particularly embarrassing, however, are several Bayern defeats in the cup. Bayern were eliminated from the DFB-Pokal three times within ten years by amateur clubs: by 1. FC Magdeburg, by FV Weinheim 08 and — legendarily — by the Middle Franconians of TSV Vestenbergsgreuth. In Weinheim (1990) and in Nuremberg (1994), where Vestenbergsgreuth relocated for the TV broadcast, it caught them in the very first round.

Both matches ended 1-0.

In November 2000, they at least made it to the 2nd round before the then fourth-tier 1. FC Magdeburg (Oberliga Nordost-Süd) finished them off on penalties (4-3). What a feast for Bayern haters.
