Bayern Munich reach their "goal" of securing third

Yes they have the possibility to play champions league next year, which is great, even if it was not the season you would wish for in Munich. A beautiful 8-1 victory away from home showed that the side can indeed play football, even if it came a little too late.

Mario Gomez completed a hat-trick yesterday and with that now holds Bayern's club record for most goals scored in one season, previously held by no other than Rummenigge. It was Bayerns biggest away win in the Bundesliga and St.Pauli's biggest loss in the Bundesliga. While as a Bayern fan I was cheering and am definitely happy that at least the champions league qualification is secured it does sting a little bit that it had to happen against st.Pauli, an overall lovable team with heart, which will be playing 2nd league again next year.

It does make you wonder though, if we would have played football like this all year, we would have won the league 5 rounds ago, and begs the question why we didn't. My favorite moment was after the game when the German media interviewed Jonker to ask if he was "eying the second place a little" to which he replied "why a little?" showing true spirit, because it really is still possible, and I know that I wont be the only Bayern fan that will also be cheering for Freiburg next week. so Stuttgart to come, 3 points that could potentially bring us the direct qualification to the champions league next year. Mia san Mia.
