Bayern's consistency pays off with ninth straight Bundesliga title

The Hindu  

Bayern Munich on Saturday earned its ninth consecutive Bundesliga title after RB Leipzig's 3-2 loss at Borussia Dortmund and its own later 6-0 demolition of Borussia Moenchengladbach which puts it 10 points clear with two games left to play. But its busy schedule meant Hansi Flick's team never had a summer break to recover from an intense season, with the Champions League final in August followed by the regular season start only weeks later. Lewandowski has scored 39 times in their 32 league games so far and is within touching distance of Gerd Mueller's all-time record of 40 league goals in one season, set in the 1971/72 campaign. That consistency proved decisive as title rivals Borussia Dortmund's rollercoaster season eventually put them out of contention, leaving Leipzig as the only real threat to Bayern's enduring domestic dominance.
