Bayern Munich Capture 8th Straight Bundesliga Title with 1-0 Win vs. Bremen
The Bundesliga belongs to Bayern Munich yet again.
For the eighth straight year, the German giants have won the league title, clinching it Tuesday with a 1-0 win over Werder Bremen.
It is Bayern's 29th title, 24 more than any club (Borussia Monchengladbach and Borussia Dortmund are tied for second with five league championships each). And only Juventus is on as impressive of a top European league title run as Bayern are currently on:
Few clubs can boast of the dominance Bayern has displayed over the Bundesliga:
Superstar forward Robert Lewandowski and goalkeeper Manuel Neuer were the heroes for Bayern Munich on Tuesday.
Lewandowski scored late in the first half after getting behind the Werder Bremen back line and brilliantly chesting down the pass over the top of the defense. Clinical as always, he finished to give Bayern the 1-0 lead.
And Neuer preserved that lead with a superb save in the game's late stages.
Bayern Munich's title was never really in doubt, as Tuesday's win opened up a 10-point lead over Dortmund on the Bundesliga table. The champions' 1-0 win over Dortmund on May 26 meant that, barring a monumental collapse, they were on their way to another championship.
Perhaps it's time for the Bundesliga to be formally renamed the Bayerndesliga. For the past eight years, that's essentially what it has been.
