Bayern Munich sealed their ninth win in a row Bundesliga title on Saturday, May 8, after thrashing Borussia Moenchengladbach 6-0 in what seemed like a one sided German fixture.
Robert Lewandowski scored a hat-trick to leave him on 39 league goals topping this season's Bundesliga top scorer chart with only one short of Gerd Mueller’s all-time Bundesliga record as the champions swept Gladbach aside at the Allianz Arena.
The emphatic victory leaves Bayern 10 points clear of second-placed RB Leipzig, whose 3-2 loss at Borussia Dortmund sealed Bayern the title, with only two games left.
The German Giants wasted no time in showcasing their intentions, with top striker Robert Lewandowski finding the bottom corner of the net with just under two minutes on the clock to hit the opener.
Kingsley Coman struck the post before Jamal Musiala’s pass picked out Thomas Mueller to slot in his 11th league goal of the season, then Lewandowski volleyed home his second goal on 34 minutes to put Bayern 3-0 ahead.
Frenchman, Kingsley Coman made it 4-0 before both teams headed to the locker rooms, then won a penalty which Lewandowski converted in the 66th minute to complete his hattrick before Leroy Sane added a late sixth.
The team's Board member and club legend Oliver Kahn has already challenged Bayern to secure a 10th title in a row where no team has ever done that in the history of Bundesliga.
Dortmund's win lifted them to fourth spot to boost their hopes of qualifying for the Champions League next season after an ugly run this season.
