00:00It justifies all logic, all belief, all we know about football.
00:05This team just do not know when they're beaten.
00:09Leverkusen show that they are invincible.
00:20Will it be 2-2?
00:22Oh, yes it will. Palacios likes to take penalties against Bayern.

00:34He has a goal.
00:36And now it truly is party time.
00:38Leverkusen 3, Bayern 0.
00:41We didn't talk much about the match in the dressing room.
00:46But we all had in our heads that this could be the year to become champions.
00:56Teller across. Oh, they've done it!
00:58Patrik Schick has done it again!

01:06And the flicker on!
01:07And they always find a way, don't they?
01:11What a pass for Wiertz, who's never scored a senior hat-trick.
01:16He has now.
01:18Bayern 0-0 Leverkusen.
01:21Deutsche Fußball Meister.
01:25Totally deserved for this team, these fans, this club.
01:32The first time is always special for everyone.
01:36So to say that we were a part of this moment in Bayern Leverkusen, it feels great.
01:46And the ball breaks! I don't believe it!
01:50Oh, that's stylish!
01:52They're not going to be denied, are they?
01:55The first ever unbeaten season in the Bundesliga.
01:59We deserve to be a part of this history in European football.
02:08In 20 years we'll be back and we were there when a Bundesliga team did that again.
02:17The Meisterschalen in Leverkusen's hands for the first time.
02:47Yes!
02:53We don't have a favourite role.
02:55The favourite role is again for me, for FC Bayern.
02:59How far can we go? We'll see.
03:02Our goal is to stay in the top four.
03:07That's realistic.
