Bayern led 1-0 against Leipzig after an early Serge Gnabry goal. They were looking in cruise control, but the visitors scored three second-half goals to turn the match, and the Bundesliga title race, on its head. Borussia Dortmund can go two points clear with one matchday remaining with a win on Sunday against Augsburg. The win, Leipzig's first in Munich and only their second victory over the German champions secured the visitor's Champions League football next season.
Borussia Dortmund to lift the Bundesliga title after a decade
Borussia Dortmund have two matches in hand and they are just a point behind Bayern. If they win their remaining games then Germany will see their new Champion in 10 years. Bayern came into the match knowing that two wins in their last two games would snare an 11th straight league title. Bayern started like a champion but Leipzig made a brilliant comeback in the second half and clinched the victory to secure their spot in the Champions League next season. Their victory at the Allianz Arena also gave Dortmund a huge opportunity to finally lift the title after a wait of a decade. Dortmund lifted the title in 2011/12 when Lewandowski was part of their team. If they win this season, It will mean they win the title again after Lewandowski's departure from Germany. Dortmund will face Augsburg in an away fixture on Sunday.
Gnabry settled Bayern's nerves after 25 minutes, blasting a rising shot in off the left post. Bayern looked to take the speed out of the game and exert control, but Leipzig struck against the run of play on the counter after 65 minutes. Konrad Laimer widely tipped for a move to Bayern in the summer, took advantage of a superb team move to rocket the ball home. A shellshocked Bayern tried to fight back but soon found themselves behind, after Benjamin Pavard brought down Christopher Nkunku in the box.
The France forward smashed the ball home from the spot, giving Yann Sommer no chance. Leipzig won another penalty with four minutes remaining after a handball. The Hungarian Dominik Szoboszlai slammed it home and secured their Champions League spot for the next season.

FC Bayern Munich are the most successful team in Bundesliga history with 34 German Championship titles. Here are the teams with most Bundesliga titles.
The Bundesliga is the top-division tournament in German football. The competition was founded in 1962, and the first season began in 1963. The Bundesliga replaced the German national championship, which was the first tournament in German football history. And since then only one club has dominated with most Bundesliga titles.
The German national championship, which was founded in 1903 and ran for 60 years, was a knockout competition contested between winners of each of the country's top regional leagues.
The founding member teams of the Bundesliga are 1860 Munich, Cologne, Borussia Dortmund, Eintracht Braunschweig, Eintracht Frankfurt, Hamburg, Hertha Berlin, Kaiserslautern, Karlsruhe, Preußen Münster, MSV Duisburg, Nuremberg, Saarbrücken, Schalke, Vfb Stuttgart and Werder Bremen.
Bayer Leverkusen became the 13th team to win the Bundesliga title in the 2023-24 season.
Besides the Bundesliga, which operated in West Germany, the DDR-Oberliga was the top-level football league in Soviet-controlled East Germany. Following the reunification of Germany, the Bundesliga became the national league of the country.
The Bundesliga started as a 16-team tournament but would soon expand to 18 teams from 1965.
In a one-off event, the league played the 1991-92 season with 20 teams following the reunification, but would return to its 18-team format in the following campaign.
There have been 13 different winners of the Bundesliga since its inception in 1963.
FC Koln, or FC Cologne in English, won the first-ever Bundesliga season in 1963-64. The Billy Goats maintained a six-point advantage over second-placed Meidericher SV (39) and scored in each of the 30 league games played in the inaugural edition.
Karl-Heinz Thielen (16 goals) and Christian Müller (15 goals) finished as the top scorers for the team in the championship-winning season.
Who has won the most Bundesliga titles?
Bayern Munich lead the Bundesliga winners list with 34 titles. The Bavarians won their maiden Meisterschale in the 1968-69 season, with an eight-point cushion and legendary forward Gerd Muller contributing 30 goals. They are the most dominant German team and have won the most Bundesliga titles.
The Bavarians recently claimed the Bundesliga 2024-25 title with two games to go in the season. In doing so, Bayern have now won the German championship a record 12 times in the last 13 seasons. Their incredible run began in 2012-13 under the management of Jupp Heynckes, which was broken in the 2023-24 season by Bayer Leverkusen.
Top Five Teams with the Most Bundesliga titles till 2023
1. Bayern Munich - 34 titles

Bayern Munich are at the top of the list as they are the all-time Bundesliga title winners with 34 titles to their name. They won the 2024-25 season with two games to go in the season.
Bayern Munich also holds the record for most second-place finishes in the top German league, having done that ten times between 1969 and 2012.
There is no doubt that they are the most dominant force in Germany and one of the most historic clubs in the history of World Football. The Bavarians have also won 20 DFB-Pokal trophies and 6 Champions League titles.
Borussia Dortmund have won five Bundesliga titles | Image: X
Borussia Dortmund, a 113-year-old German club, is second on the list of clubs with the most Bundesliga titles.
After Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund have won the most Bundesliga titles and have also finished second the most times in the German league.
In the pre-Bundesliga days, ‘die Schwarzgelben’ lifted three league titles – two more than Bayern.
There has always been a soft spot for Dortmund in every football fan's heart, except the fans of Bayern.
In the 2022-23 season, they were the favourites to win the titles but bottled it on the last day. Dortmund won their last Bundesliga title under Jurgen Klopp in the 2011-12 season.
Titles by years: 1994–1995; 1995–1996; 2001–2002; 2010–11; and 2011–12
3. Borussia Monchengladbach - 5 Titles
Borussia Monchengladbach have won 5 Bundesliga titles | Image: Bundesliga
Borussia Mönchengladbach holds the third place on the list, and they have won the same number of Bundesliga titles as Borussia Dortmund.
They have finished second less as compared to Dortmund, and that's the reason why they are placed third.
Three of their five Bundesliga championships were consecutive. They won their last league title in the 1976-77 season under Udo Lattek. Monchengladbach have only ever been demoted to the Bundesliga 2 twice, in 1999 and 2007.
Titles by years: 1969–70, 1970–71, 1974–75, 1975–76, and 1976–77

HSV have won three Bundesliga titles | Image: X
Hamburger SV comes fifth in this list with 3 Bundesliga titles to their name.
Their last league title came in the 1982-83 season under Ernst Happel, who won his second title with the club.
HSV have the record in German football of having won the most regional titles, having won 31 regional titles. But the regional titles do not count as a trophy or even as a title itself.
Until the 2017–18 season, HSV were the only club to have played continuously in the Bundesliga since its foundation.
Last season, Real Madrid went on to win the UEFA Champions League for a record 15th time. As we inch closer to this season's final, we take a look at the Champions League winners list since 1956.
The Champions League was earlier called the European Cup, and it started in 1955, and the first winner was Real Madrid. For the next 5 years, Real Madrid did not let anyone get close to the trophy.
Since then, 23 teams have won the glory, with Manchester City being the most recent one. As we get close to another UEFA Champions League final, we take a look at the Champions League winners list since 1965.

UEFA Champions League 2024-25 Quarter-final Second Leg Round Up: Arsenal eliminate Real Madrid; Barcelona, Inter, PSG through
Arsenal defeated Real Madrid in the second leg, whereas Barcelona and PSG stormed into the semis despite losing, and Inter Milan qualified after a thrilling draw.
The second-leg matchdays of the UEFA Champions League 2024-25Quarter-final ties havegifted us some memorable UCL nights through four of the best matches this season.
— UEFA Champions League (@ChampionsLeague) April 17, 2025
Aston Villa came back from trailing to beat Paris Saint-Germain 3-2 at home, whereas Dortmund defeated Barcelona 3-1, but both sides were knocked out on aggregate.
Arsenal kept their UCL unbeaten streak against Real Madrid intact, beating them 2-1 in the second leg, advancing to the semis. Inter Milan also shared the spoils with Bayern Munich in a 2-2 draw, but sealed their passage to the semi-finals.

Aston Villa 3-2 Paris Saint-Germain (AGG 4-5)
(Image Source | X)
Playing at their home, Villa Park, Aston Villa did not get off to a good start, letting in two goals in 30 minutes, through the PSG full-backs Achraf Hakimi and Nuno Mendes.
Paris Saint-Germain dominated the first half, despite ending it at 2–1 as Youri Tielemans pulled one back. The second half, though, was a Villa fairy tale, netting two more goals from McGinn and Konsa and hunting for the third. Marco Asensio, late on the field, promptly made his mark, nearly scoring against his parent club.
The Guirassy hat-trick could not keep this mercurial Borussia Dortmund side out. Even though FC Barcelona seemed all at sea, making mistake after mistake that we did not witness in last week's match, they were still able to keep them at bay.
They did not really begin to play like their own team until Pedri came onto the field in the later stages. Other notable players in this game were De Jong holding in the midfield and Szczesny playing like he’s in his prime. However, a Bensebaini own goal kept Barca on a two-goal cushion to safely guide them through to the semis.
"Remontada," a term that was heard being uttered repeatedly again and again with this Real Madrid team, mostly from Bellingham. However, Arsenal crushed their dream of a magical comeback with a 2-1 victory in the return leg at Bernabeu.
Arsenal performed fantastically, and Arteta is worthy of all the accolades for the display set out away at the Bernabéu. Rice performed masterfully; he was all over the pitch, marking every pass; no one was penetrating him.
Ninety long minutes at the Bernabeu, and we heard you all game long.
Bukayo Saka failed to convert an early penalty due to a marvellous save from Courtois. However, he redeemed himself with the opening goal in the 65th minute, but it was canceled out after Vinicius scored the equalizer only two minutes later.
Gabriel Martinelli netted the winner in injury time, leading Arsenal to another win against Real Madrid and keeping their unbeaten record against Los Blancos in the UCL intact.
Bayern Munich played pretty much the majority of the second leg on the back foot, but Inter Milan held them to a chilling 2-2 draw at home. Lautaro Martinez had enough opportunities, showed some lovely dibbles, and obviously scored; all of these earned him the man of the match award.
Kane did everything in his power, but it was just not good enough, and it's disappointing to see this Bayern side leave, particularly because it's Müller's final Champions League campaign with the side.
It was Kane who opened the scoring, but two back-to-back strikes from Lautaro and Pavard put Inter at the top again. Eric Dier scored the equalizer from a tough angle, but the Bavarians failed to score another to equalize the tie — better to say, Inter Milan defended masterfully!

Goals from Lautaro Martinez and Pavard take them to the final four!
Full-time | Inter Milan 2-2 Bayern Munich (AGG 4-3)
It’s all over and Inter edge through 4-3 on aggregate, after the two previous two-legged ties between these two clubs finished 3-3. Once again, it was a tight contest, with Inter trailing and then leading before Dier’s header made it 2-2 on the night. Ultimately, Pavard’s header against his old club is what separates the sides overall, and it’s the Italian side who will face Barcelona in the last four.

Longevity!
Thomas Müller starts tonight and extends his record as the player with the most Champions League appearances for one single club. 👀
Starting XI: Jonas Urbig (GK); Konrad Laimer, Eric Dier, Kim Min-Jae, Josip Stanišić; Joshua Kimmich, Leon Goretzka; Micheal Olise, Thomas Muller (C), Leroy Sane; Harry Kane
Bayern will be without Jamal Musiala for the rest of the season, which opens the door for Raphael Guerreiro to potentially start as the number 10 again after his impressive performance off the bench against Dortmund. Although Thomas Müller scored after being introduced from the bench last week, Guerreiro's contribution may earn him a starting spot.
Young goalkeeper Jonas Urbig will start again as Manuel Neuer's return date has been pushed back to the end of April at the earliest. The team is also facing a number of absentees in defense, with Alphonso Davies, Dayot Upamecano, and Hiroki Ito all sidelined due to injury.
Serge Gnabry is putting pressure on Leroy Sané for a starting position after scoring off the bench in the recent draw against Dortmund. However, it is likely that coach Vincent Kompany will stick with Sané in this match, especially with Kingsley Coman also available for selection.

Inzaghi made minor rotations to his Inter team over the weekend, allowing players like Marcus Thuram, Alessandro Bastoni, and Henrikh Mkhitaryan to rest in preparation for the second leg.
Mehdi Taremi has returned from a muscle injury and was on the bench for the match against Cagliari, while Kristjan Asllani will also be available again after serving a European suspension. However, both are expected to start as substitutes.
Piotr Zielinski and Denzel Dumfries remain sidelined due to injuries. Additionally, Inzaghi faces a decision at left wing-back, as Federico Dimarco has regained full fitness, but Carlos Augusto is currently playing exceptionally well.
