Bayern-Real: Belgian MP Vincent Kompany’s father arrives at Parliament wearing a Bayern Munich scarf

Vincent Kompany’s father made a point of giving his son a nice nod the day after Bayern Munich qualified for the Champions League semi-finals. A member of the Belgian Parliament, Pierre Kompany drew attention during the plenary session with his scarf in the German club’s colors.

Nothing compares to a father’s pride. After a spectacular and high-scoring match, Vincent Kompany’s Bayern Munich eliminated Real Madrid from the Champions League title race with a 4-3 victory (6-4 on aggregate) on Wednesday night in the second leg of their quarter-final. This qualification for the semi-finals of the Champions League brought joy to a Belgian MP, but not just any MP: none other than Pierre Kompany… father of the Bavarian coach.

A member of parliament for the Engagés party since 2024, the 78-year-old Belgian was present in Parliament on Thursday, the day after the victory of the team coached by his son. The first Black mayor in his country’s history (2018-2022), Pierre Kompany arrived at the parliamentary chamber for the plenary session in the House of Representatives wearing a suit… but also a Bayern Munich scarf around his neck.

Before entering politics, Pierre Kompany played as a striker for the famous TP Mazembe team, a team from the Belgian Congo (now called the Democratic Republic of Congo or DRC) where he was born in 1947. A political refugee in Belgium where his son was born in 1986, he became a member of the Brussels Parliament in 2014, before being elected mayor of Ganshoren and then a member of parliament since the 2024 federal legislative elections.

It remains to be seen whether he will travel from Belgium to Paris for his son’s Champions League semi-final first leg at the Parc des Princes against PSG. With Bayern Munich, whom he has coached for two seasons, Vincent Kompany will attempt to win his first Champions League title on the bench of the German club, last crowned champions in 2020.
