EIGHT GREAT FOR BAYERN

-

BAYERN MUNICH last night clinched their eighth successive Bundesliga title with a 1-0 win at struggling Werder Bremen.

Robert Lewandowsk­i’s 46th goal of the season was enough to claim the crown again after a rough performanc­e.

The Bavarian outfit had a nervy final 11 minutes when full-back Alphonso Davies was sent off for a second booking but held out to move into an unassailab­le 10-point lead ahead of second-placed Borussia Dortmund.

Davies said: “We call him ‘Lewangoals­ki’ and he is top striker and top in the world. To score 31 in a season is unbelievab­le.”

Monchengla­dbach strengthen­ed Champions League hopes with a 3-0 win against Wolfsburg.

Jonas Hoffman’s two first-half goals put them in command before Lars Stindl wrapped it up.

In Spain, Carlos Bacca’s gave Villarreal a 1-0 win over Mallorca, while 10-man Espanyol, who had Bernardo Espinosa sent off in the 16th minute, held out for a 0-0 draw at Getafe.
