Thousands of Bayern fans gathered this Sunday (28) at the Marienplatz square in Munich to celebrate the title of the German Championship conquered this weekend.
The heavy mood in the club’s board, which announced the sacking of sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic and chief executive Oliver Khan minutes after Saturday’s victory over Cologne, postponed the celebrations until the next day.
Around 15,000 people covered the Marienplatz square in red and white to celebrate the Bavarian giants’ 11th consecutive Bundesliga title.
Goalkeeper Manuel Neuer and midfielder Lina Magull, captain of the women’s team, which was also German champion, greeted the fans from the balcony of the Munich City Hall building and displayed the trophies given to the teams.
This is the fourth time that Bayern’s men’s and women’s teams have won the Bundesliga in the same season.
On Saturday, after a round full of emotions, coach Thomas Tuchel’s players beat Cologne 2-1 and snatched the title from the hands of Borussia Dortmund, who drew at home with Mainz when they needed a simple victory to be champion.

In turn, the women’s team secured the title this Sunday, beating Potsdam 11-1.
