Any fans of Bundesliga on here?
Dortmund just kicked off their final game at home to Mainz on Sky Sports Mix, a win and they will be Bundesliga champions for the first time since 2012.
Sounds like a great atmosphere.

German football is just next level compared to what we do in the UK. If we could make the atmosphere at the Turf even 10% like it is in stadiums up and down Germany it'd be an improvement.

Hoping for Union Berlin to claim 4th. They're at home to Werder Bremen and just need to equal or better Freiburg's result away at Frankfurt.
20 years ago they were in the german equivalent of the Conference North and only 15 years ago they were promoted to the 2nd tier, so getting Champions League football is some achievement.

Would love Union to seal fourth. Hertha going down is big too.
Bayern one up. A Mainz goal makes it interesting. But looks like a penalty for Dortmund.

No issues with Union but a while ago someone on here shared an article about Freiburg and their stature in German football along with their history mirrored a lot with Burnley and I have had a soft spot for them since.

My only soft spot in German football is with Hamburg who look like making the play offs from 2 Bundesliga.

The penalty claim not given was more of a penalty than the penalty that was given.

I have a feeling in added time at the end of the game Dortmund will have an Aguero moment.

Had to do a double take then
Thought the commentator was saying the attacking player for Mainz was “Jason Lee”

Dortmund don’t need equaliser if Munich can only draw.
