Kahn explains Bayern's no-show

Jamaal Musiala was the hero of the day after he scored the decisive winner at the RheinEnergie Stadion while leaders Dortmund dropped two points at home following a 2-2 draw against Mainz.

The results saw Bayern leapfrog the Black and Yellows to seal the title for the 11th consecutive time.

However, their CEO Kahn was not at the Koln stadion to party with the Bavarians, with reports of his sack coming out after the games.
