Thomas Müller, trophy in hand, and the Bayern team basked in the blizzard of red and white confetti at Munich's Allianz Arena. But the evening's surprise wasn't all on the field. Vincent Kompany, the coach, dropped a feathered bomb - a kitschy parrot statue ruffled the champions' feathers instead of the coveted trophy.
The scene left spectators and analysts, including Lothar Matthäus, scratching their heads. Later, Matthäus explained, "The parrot had been a crowd favorite at the Kafer restaurant. They took it with them to the celebration."
The curious culprit remained ambiguous. Goalkeeper Jonas Urbig and prodigy Jamal Musiala either remained mum or nonchalant. "I didn't swipe it," Urbig assured. Musiala flashed a wink, "First time seeing it." The party ensued, and the parrot, our feathered friend, was center stage. Kompany promised, "We'll return it to its rightful nest."
Müller, meanwhile, received the trophy in place of Manuel Neuer, the regular captain. Emotions ran high, but no tears were shed as Müller celebrated his final home game with Bayern and his 750th competitive match. The Meisterschale had returned to its rightful owners, FC Bayern Munich, after Bayer Leverkusen's win last year.
