Dortmund managed to lose this championship too! The Westphalians saw her Mainz leading 2-0 in the 24th minute at “Signal Iduna Park”, they wasted a bag of chances and with the final 2-2, gave the 11th straight championship to Bayern Munich!
With Bavarians to see Cologne in turn… shock them in the 81st minute and prepare to return the cup to Westphaliabut the “golden change” Musiala he redeemed them in the 89th minute and gave them the 33rd championship in their history!
At “Signal Iduna Park” the whole scene resembled a fiesta. Thousands of fans had marched to the stadium, there was a festive atmosphere in the streets of Dortmund and the trophy had taken its place on the pitch. All that was left was for Terzic’s players to do their job, to do the simple thing: Beat Mainz!
The match started with the worst of omens for the hosts, after Fernandez served and Handze-Olsen headed Cobel to make it 1-0 in the 15th minute. The shock initially appeared to be overcome immediately, after three minutes Dortmund won a penalty but Ale did not beat Damen from the eleven steps. In the closing stages, specifically in the 24th minute, Onisivo increased the visitors’ lead and the home team’s bitterness. Dortmund’s players looked shell-shocked and unable to react, while Mainz’s every attack smelled like a goal. However, 2-0 did not change until the end of the half.

The good news from Cologne was not forthcoming, however, as Coman opened the scoring in just the 8th minute with a crazy spot-kick for Bayern, who went on to seal the three points before half-time with Sane, but the German winger’s goal was disallowed for hand at the beginning of the effort. 1-0 was the score in the first half, but it looked fragile, given the Bavarians’ image during the season.
In Westphalia, now, Terzic had dropped Reus into the match, had Bellingham unavailable due to injury, while also bringing on Mukoko. Dortmund had the upper hand, but it was meaningless and with the introduction of Reina and Duranville in the 63rd minute, they got a breather with the latter on his debut being… all the money. Ale missed a great phase to reduce, but Guerreiro in the 69th minute reduced and set… on fire.

The home side continued to press but wasted one phase after another and couldn’t find an early equaliser. However, they started to smile and shout again in the 81st minute when Ljubicic equalized for Cologne 1-1 against Bayern with a penalty and… handed the league to Dortmund.
The minutes in both stadiums were passing dramatically, with the bad news from the “Energy Stadium” reaching “Signal Induna Park”: Musiala, who had come on as a substitute in the 86th minute, executed the opposing goalkeeper with an elusive spot-kick and became one with the Bavarian fans in the stands after giving away… cup.

The extra five minutes in both stadiums flew by, with Bayern players and staff celebrating like crazy. Gilles, with tremendous individual energy and finishing as a striker rather than a stopper, executed Dahmer for 2-2 at 90’+6′ and although at least a minute of stoppage time had passed, the hosts were looking for the ultimate turnaround and miracle . They did not find it, although they came close and the final score left the Westphalians empty-handed, who had fallen inconsolably on the grass and were crying. In contrast to the Bavarians who feasted their hearts out in Cologne…
