For the first time in a decade, the Bundesliga title looked to give Borussia Dortmund an edge instead of Bayern Munich.
Bayern and Dortmund met in the Der Klassiker but the defending champion humbled the challenger with a 4-2 win. Dortmund’s draw with Bochum and Bayern’s win over Hertha Berlin saw the Bavarians cement their lead on top of the Bundesliga table.
However, RB Leipzig shocked the 31-time Bundesliga champion with a 3-1 win, giving an advantage for Dortmund to capitalise. On Sunday, the yellow-and-black army beat Augsburg to go top in the Bundesliga.
But on the last day of the Bundesliga, it was a draw for BVB that saw Bayern Munich being crowned the league champion for the 33rd time overall.
How does the points table look now?
Team | Played | Won | Drew | Lost | GD | Points |
Bayern Munich | 34 | 21 | 8 | 5 | 54 | 71 |
Borussia Dortmund | 34 | 22 | 5 | 8 | 38 | 71 |
