Bayern Munich are Bundesliga champions for the 11th consecutive season after Borussia Dortmund shuffled their squad on a dramatic final day in Germany.
Bayern Munich have sacked Oliver Kahn and Hasan Salihamidzic just minutes after Thomas Tuchel's side won the club's 11th consecutive Bundesliga title. Salihamidzic was even in the stands in Cologne while Kahn was at home as Bayern endured a fearsome finish to beat FC Koln 2-1 as Borussia Dortmund snuffed out the chance to end their opponents' lingering dominance. .
Bayern led Cologne in the first half to really increase the pressure on Dortmund, who were 2-0 down in the first half at home to Mainz.
Sebastien Haller also missed a penalty in that period, but Dortmund were ultimately saved when Cologne leveled at the end of the day. But Dortmund were unable to capitalize on Niklas Sule's late equalizer after Jamal Musiala scored an impressive win for Bayern, who had his name engraved on the trophy.
However, there was one more turning point for Bayern amid their jubilant title celebrations as reports from Germany recorded that Kahn and Salihamidzic had been sacked full-time.
The Bosnian player looked through his fingers in the upper stands and even went down to the pitch to celebrate wildly after Bayern won the championship.

Liverpool appear to have missed out on signing Turin defender Perr Schuurs, with the centre-back set to stay at the Italian club.
That's according to Tuttosport, who say the Dutchman has confirmed he will spend 'at least another year at Granata'.
The newspaper has drawn comments from those around him, who confidently assert that he "will stay with Toro next season!". 100%' when asked about his future.
Schuurs has been linked with leaving the Serie A club for several months, with teams across Europe, including the Premier League, reportedly very interested in him.
Liverpool are one of them and a February report made it clear they were the first of his suitors to make a move for him. Tuttosport confirmed they were among those enthusiasts, explaining that Schuur's name had "circled the desks" of many foreign clubs and Liverpool was one of them.
They could have lured him out of Italy but he chose to stay where he is instead because he has 'intentions to grow' and wants to continue to do so with Turin.
He believes he has plenty of room to grow before moving to a big club and so he would turn down interest from Liverpool to do so.
