Bayern Munich and VfB Stuttgart fined for pyrotechnics at DFB-Pokal final

Bayern Munich and VfB Stuttgart have both been fined €260,000 by the DFB due to the extensive use of pyrotechnics during the DFB-Pokal final held on May 23, 2026. Approximately 300 pyrotechnic devices were set off by fans of each club during the match. The use of such devices has increasingly come under scrutiny this season, with Bayern previously facing penalties for pyrotechnic use in other matches. As both clubs prepare for the upcoming season, they must address the implications of these fines.
