Thomas Müller Sets Bayern Munich Appearance Record

Thomas Müller made history by becoming Bayern Munich's record appearance holder with his 710th match during a 2-0 victory over Freiburg, where he also scored his 150th Bundesliga goal. His accomplishment surpasses the previous record set by goalkeeper Sepp Maier in 1979. Manager Vincent Kompany praised Müller for his dedication and performance, noting the special connection as he witnessed Müller's debut game in 2008. Despite a strong first half, Kompany acknowledged a dip in performance after the break but highlighted the importance of experienced players like Müller in crucial moments. The win places Bayern Munich second in the Bundesliga, just behind Heidenheim on goal difference. Müller downplayed personal milestones, emphasizing teamwork and future ambitions for the season.
