Bayern Munich won their 25th Bundesliga title on Sunday having lost just twice in the process - take a look back at their road to success.
Bayern met Wolfsburg in their opening game, a side who would go on to establish themselves as the Bavarians' closest rivals in the race for the title. The game also saw Robert Lewandowski make his debut for the club.
Arjen Robben scored one and assisted Thomas Muller's strike in a 2-1 win, with Ivica Olic's effort proving to be nothing more than a consolation..
Bayern had appeared to have completed their summer transfer business following the signings of Pepe Reina. Sebastian Rode, Mehdi Benatia and Robert Lewandowski, but Xabi Alonso arrived for €10 million from Real Madrid after Javi Martinez and Thiago Alcantara suffered long-term injuries.
The midfielder made his debut just a day after signing for the club in the 1-1 draw with Schalke and impressed as he enjoyed a staggering 91 touches of the ball in his 68 minutes on the pitch.
In November, Bayern came from behind to beat
Borussia Dortmund 2-1. Marco Reus put BVB in front but Lewandowski
scored against his former club before an Arjen Robben penalty sealed the
points.
