FC Bayern celebrate their eighth championship title in a row after a narrow victory over Werder Bremen. Robert Lewandowski scored the goal of the day.

  • The FC Bayern * is 30 times German Champion
  • On matchday 32 the record champion * won 1-0 (0-0) against Werder Bremen
  • It is the eighth consecutive title for the Hansi Flick * team

Munich - Thomas Müller hopped like a bouncy ball over the wet lawn at the final whistle and shouted exuberantly: "Where are the Bengalos?" In the stands, the high men around CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge , CEO Oliver Kahn and club president Herbert Hainer cheerfully applaud. And just a few moments later, the series winners of FC Bayern Munich were already wearing red caps and T-shirts with a white "8" after the early win of the 30th German championship - for the eighth Bundesliga title in succession. Who was the best player in the game for you?

"We have shown that we are the best team in Germany," said Robert Lewandowski * , who scored the Munich goal with his 31st goal this season (43rd) 1-0 (1-0) at Werder Bremen. "We are totally satisfied and the team totally deserves it," said Rummenigge at Sky . He recalled that the record champions had already been seven points behind the then leaders Borussia Mönchengladbach in autumn, but then coach Hansi Flick in particular "did a great job".

After the heartbeat final last year, Bayern, where Alphonso Davies saw yellow-red in the 79th minute, made the 30th club history championship perfect on the third last day of the match in Bremen's bad weather - also thanks to goalkeeper Manuel Neuer , who won with one outstanding parade in the 90th minute against Yuya Osako secured the victory. This means that the Bayern with unassailable ten-point lead over Borussia Dortmund at the top. The team played an "excellent second half of the season," Hainer said.

The president, like his predecessor Uli Hoeneß, does not rule out the triple : "We are in the cup final, we are in the Champions League with one leg in the quarterfinals - we still have all options. I am optimistic, ”he said. The dream of a triple is alive - also thanks to Flick: After taking over the team from Niko Kovac after the 10th matchday and the 1: 5 debacle at Eintracht Frankfurt , there were still defeats against Leverkusen and in Gladbach, but then they won Bavaria 52 out of 54 possible points.

Flick secured the “salad bowl” as the third Munich man after his predecessor Kovac and Franz Beckenbauer as a professional and coach - and is now hoping for even more silverware.

On July 4th, the cup victory in the final against Bayer Leverkusen in the Berlin Olympic Stadium is to follow, and the triumph in the Champions League in August is also in the sights of coach Hansi Flick * , who as Bayern coach scored his 26th win in the 29th competitive match . The second triple after 2013 does not seem to be a utopia for these Bavarians.

A real party didn't start with the ghost master in times of Corona . He would be "happy if they didn't exist," Flick had said before the game about the famous Weissbier showers and announced a "rule-based celebration" in a small group. And more are to follow. If the team "plays as it is now, they will be able to play for the title anywhere," said Honorary President Hoeneß last.
