The Franz Beckenbauer Cup was an annual friendly association football match named in honour of Franz Beckenbauer. It was organised by Bayern Munich before the beginning of the season, and played between the hosts and a guest team at the Allianz Arena.
Inspiration for the cup came from Bayern's participation in the 2006 Joan Gamper Trophy.[1]
Bayern Munich never won the cup.
In case of a draw after regular time, the winner is immediately decided on penalties. No extra time is played.
