WOULD JA BELIEVE IT

THOMAS TUCHEL, sacked by Chelsea in September, won the Bundesliga title with Bayern Munich on an extraordinary final day on and off the pitch.

But Bayern's triumph - on goal difference - meant despair for Jude Bellingham and Borussia Dortmund, who had begun the afternoon two points clear at the top.

Dortmund were 2-0 down at home to Mainz before missing a series of great second-half chances in a match that ended 2-2.

Victory would have been enough for Dortmund and their crowd of over 81,000 as Bayern had to win to give themselves any hope.

And win they did, with a stunning, curling 89thminute goal from Jamal Musiala securing a 2-1 victory at Cologne, who had equalised just eight minutes earlier.
