Bayern Munich midfielder Aleksandar Pavlović always wanted to win a DFB-Pokal title.
Even as a young boy, Pavlović had lofty visions of success and the 22-year-old can check one more item off of his bucket list after helping the Bavarians win the Pokal with a 3-1 victory over VfB Stuttgart.
“This is an incredible feeling, it’s so much fun. Of course, as a young player, I always dreamed of this. And now I experience it every week, every month. Today I won the cup for the first time – it’s an indescribable feeling and even better than I imagine,” Pavlović said (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
Pavlović has made nice progress with his development, but next season he will have to step up even more. Without Leon Goretzka around, Pavlović will be a defined starter and have to absorb a lot more responsibility. It will be a big test, but if it goes like every other obstacle that has been in Pavlović’s way on his career path, he will overcome it with aplomb.
