Bayern Munich clinched their 10th Bundesliga title in a row with a 3-1 victory against Borussia Dortmund at the Allianz Arena on Saturday.
With a shot from the edge of the penalty box, Serge Gnabry put Bayern ahead after 15 minutes. After a defensive blunder by Dortmund, Robert Lewandowski increased the hosts’ lead with a close-range strike in 34 minutes.
After Emre Can equalize for Dortmund from the penalty spot after 52 minutes, all fears of a tense finish were allayed when Jamal Musiala scored the game’s last goal with seven minutes remaining.
Julian Nagelsmann’s first title as Bayern Munich coach, but it maintains a period of supremacy in Germany that has never been witnessed before. Before Bayern, no one had ever won three Bundesliga titles in a row.
“Just for these moments… this is the finest,” Thomas Muller, the first player in league history to win 11 crowns, remarked. “This isn’t going to be dull. This is fantastic. Every year, the more you win, the more greedy you get.”
Bayern Munich won the Bundesliga title with five games to spare after defeating Dortmund for the second time this season, the first being a 3-2 victory on December 4.
Bayern Munich has only lost four league games this season, to Eintracht Frankfurt, FC Augsburg, Borussia Monchengladbach, and VfL Bochum, but they have always been comfortably ahead of Dortmund at the top of the table.
