FC Bayern celebrates Boateng, Alaba, Martinez and Lewandowski

With a befitting 5-2 win against Augsburg, Bayern say goodbye to the summer break. However, the focus was less on the 24th win of the season, but more on the championship title, the goal record of Robert Lewandowski and the farewell to David Alaba, Jérôme Boateng, Javi Martínez and Hansi Flick. We have collected the best reactions, pictures and tweets about the Munich celebrations.

After the last game of the season against Augsburg, FC Bayern received the championship trophy for the 31st time. After a rather bumpy season, they are 13 points ahead of RB Leipzig in the end. Due to the fact that the title had long been fixed and excessive celebrations with wheat beer showers and all the trimmings were forbidden, the celebration was rather quiet.

After nine championships in a row, the Munich team was not necessarily tired of partying, but of course that certain something was missing without the crowd. At least the Munich team was able to celebrate with 250 fans and members of the team for the first time in the season.

In addition to the championship celebrations, Robert Lewandowski was of course also in focus. The world footballer had to wait until the 90th minute before he overtook Gerd Müller with his 41st goal of the season. Before that, the goal for the Poles seemed nailed up and some people will have believed in an evil curse. Shortly before the end, however, the Torgarant was still there and shot himself to become the sole record holder.

However, the 32-year-old should not lack goals. His 41 goals are unmatched in the Bundesliga, but he’s still missing a few goals on Lionel Messi (La Liga) and Josip Skoblar (Ligue 1)

After his insane success, Robert Lewandowski was speechless. “I have no words for it, I tried everything for 90 minutes and I made it in the 90th minute. I’m very, very happy,” he said after the final whistle. What a season from the world footballer. Words are almost lacking for us too.

As is so often the case, there was a little melancholy in the last game of the season. With David Alaba,
Jérôme Boateng and Javi Martinez are three long-standing top performers. The big time of the trio began with the Champions League triumph in 2013 and ended with the ninth championship title in a row. Such a run might not have been achieved without the reliable performers.

What Hansi Flick has achieved for Bayern may remain unmatched for a long time. The 56-year-old only completed a year and a half as head coach, but with Bayern he won every title that can be won in European football. It is already clear: After this Saturday, nothing will be the same in Munich as it used to be. We will especially miss the successful coach.

Emotional farewell to Jérôme Boateng. The 32-year-old played in Munich’s dress for ten years. It is currently unclear where his journey will continue.

With all the events, the farewell to Miroslav Klose almost went under a little. However, the former star striker also did a great job for Bayern. Like the “Tiger”, Hermann Gerland, the assistant coach is leaving the Munich team. It’s a little thought-provoking that Bayern are losing two other excellent employees in addition to Flick.

Referee Markus Schmidt used the backdrop of 250 fans to give his career a worthy end. A referee leaves the lawn under a spectator laola. When did that happen before?
