In jaw-dropping definition, the Bavarian side clinched their eleventh consecutive star and left the Blacks and Yellows empty-handed, who depended only on themselves to lift Germany’s crowning trophy.
An incredible end was the one that happened this Saturday at the climax of the German Bundesliga, after the last day of the championship was played simultaneously.
When defining, there were two teams with options for the title: Borussia Dortmund (70 points) and Bayern Munich (68), who faced Mainz and Cologne respectively.
Clearly, the advantage was for the black-yellows who, in addition to having two units more than their escort, had in favor of being hosts . The Bavarians, for their part, had to face their rival from the 34th as a visitor.
However, the scenario quickly deteriorated for Dortmund, since in less than half an hour of play, they lost 0-2 with goals from Andreas Hanche-Olsen (15th) and Karim Onisiwo (24th ). . To make matters worse, Sebastien Haller missed a 19th-minute penalty that could have been a partial tie.
While in the other match things were not going better for Edin Terzic’s students, since at the end of the first stage Bayern Munich led 1-0 thanks to a goal from Kingsley Coman (8th). With these results those led by Thomas Tuchel were crowned champions.
However, Dortmund fans gave their souls back to their bodies at Signal Iduna Park, celebrating twice: Raphael Guerreiro (69′) scored the throw-in, while in the other game Dejan Ljubicic (81′) tied the game with a penalty. There, the scenario changed again: the Negriamarillos were crowned with 70 points out of 69 for the Bavarians.
But there was still a story to tell because as the duel already expired, Jamal Musiala (89′) scored the goal that declared the 2-1 victory for Munich, while in Dortmund the hosts only managed to equalize 2-2 in the 6th minute of added time thanks to Niklas Sule (90 + 6 ‘), which it was not enough for them to celebrate the title in a breathtaking definition which, due to the equality of points (71), was only settled in favor of the reds in because of the goal difference (54 against 39).
With this title, Bayern Munich secured their 32nd Bundesliga title and eleventh consecutive crown. For its part, Borussia Dortmund was on the verge of reaching its sixth star and will have to settle for a qualification for the next edition of the Champions League.
