Bayern claimed their 10th consecutive title in Round 31, but were still on track to finish the season in a big way. Stanišić saw a rare starting line-up with his first Bundesliga goal, then a frustrated Lewandowski netted his 35th league goal.
Wolfsburg vs Bayern 2-2
But the Wolves managed to turn back, to the delight of those who bet on football. Wind equalized one goal before the end of the first half, but Kroos equalized. 2:2. “Bayern finished with 77 points – their worst result in the last 10 years.
- Wolfsburg, Volkswagen Arena
- Goals: Wind 45, Cruz 58 – Stanisic 17, Lewandowski 40
Borussia D vs Hertha 2-1
Erling Haaland said goodbye to Dortmund in the most natural way – by scoring. 86 from 89 games for Borussia, or an average of 0.97 goals per match – the best number in the club’s history among those who have played at least a dozen games for Dortmund. The Norwegian equalized in the 68th minute, while his potential successor Yusuf Mukoko secured victory over Hertha in the 84th minute. The 17-year-old prodigy needed just a minute on the field to do so.
Meanwhile, Herta really needed a hit. Had the dinosaur team led by Felix Magath managed to get at least a point, they would have avoided relegation from the Bundesliga. But it was not as hoped – the Berlin team fought two playoffs for the right to be in the elite.
- Dortmund, Signal Iduna Park
- Goals: Haaland 68 (penalty kick), Mukoko 84 – Belvodel 18 (penalty kick)
Bayern vs Freiburg 2-1
From a championship standpoint, Bayer didn’t need anything either, unlike his rival. “Freiburg, in the event they beat RB Leipzig, could claim a place in the Champions League. However, Christian Streiche’s team could not fulfill their role.
It was a crazy confrontation. Alario opened the scoring in the early stages of the second half, and Freiburg scored just two minutes before the end of normal time. The debut in goal was spoiled by Russian Andrei Lunev, whose appearance in front of the icon of the Pacific Ocean in the central circle and the banners of StopWar looked, to put it mildly, fragile.
Palacios smashed Freiburg’s hopes in penalty time, leaving Streiss’ team with their ticket to the Egyptian League. Freiburg can avenge Leipzig in the German Cup final next weekend to the delight of all his team’s fans. Sports betting Vulcan Bet.
- Leverkusen, Bay Arena
- Targets: Alario 53, Palacios 90 + 7 – Haberer 88
Armenia x Leipzig 1-1
Leipzig was coping with its ‘mission’ – by the onset of compensatory time, the Bulls somehow managed to lose to desperate Armenia, which could have opened the door for Freiburg to bypass the last corner.
But at 90 + 3 minutes, Willy Orban calmed his fans with a record draw, thus securing Leipzig a place in the Champions League.
- Bielefeld, Choco Arena
- Target: Sierra 70 – Urban 90 + 3
