Bayern Munich won their seventh consecutive Bundesliga title after they picked up a 5-1 win over Eintracht Frankfurt.

Two points clear at the top ahead of Borussia Dortmund, Bayern had to win or draw their game against Adi Hutter’s men to win the league. At Borussia Park, Dortmund faced Borussia Monchengladbach and had to win to stand a chance of winning the Bundesliga for the first time since 2012.

But Bayern started well, scoring through Kingsley Coman in the fourth minute. Dortmund scored a goal of their own against Gladbach, with Jadon Sancho grabbing the first right before half time.

Sebastian Haller did equalize for Frankfurt and gave hopes to many Bvb fans, but Bayern sweeped them apart in the new 20 minutes.
