European places, relegation, the Bundesliga has delivered its verdict

The 34th and final day of the Bundesliga delivered its lessons this Saturday.

Bayern, overwhelming champion, shone once again this Saturday during the 34e and last lifting of the Bundesliga. Thanks to a hat-trick from Kane in particular, the Munich players crushed Cologne (5-1), thus punctuating their championship with a 16-point lead over Dortmund, who at the same time defeated Werder in Bremen (0-2).

Like the Bavarian Record Player and BvB, Leipzig and Stuttgart, third and fourth in the standings, will be in the Champions League next season. A cruel outcome for Hoffenheim, severely beaten today in Mönchengladbach (4-0) and finally confined to fifth place synonymous with the Europa League. This like Bayer Leverkusen, sixth. Fribourg, a notch below, will play the Conference League.

At the bottom of the table, Sankt Pauli and Heidenheim are relegated to Bundesliga 2. Wolfsburg, 16eis on reprieve and will face the third in the second division in a round-trip play-off this season. Namely Elversberg, Hanover or Paderborn. The only certainty for the moment regarding the lucky ones promoted to the German elite: the return to the forefront of Schalke 04.
