Bayern Munich also won the 2012–13 DFB-Pokal and the 2012–13 Bundesliga, completing a treble. Because they won the Champions League, they got to play against Chelsea, who won the 2012–13 UEFA Europa League, in the 2013 UEFA Super Cup. They also qualified for the semi-finals of the 2013 FIFA Club World Cup as the UEFA representative, and they ended up winning both of these competitions.
