Despite Bayern Munich being crowned the champions of the Bundesliga and Bayern Leverkusen coming second, the final matchday in the league was not an easy one, as Borussia Dortmund took the final slot in the league for the next UEFA Champions League after a resounding 3-0 win against Holstein Kiel.
Borussia Dortmund did not even wait much from the moment the match started before securing higher possession. Two minutes after the commencement whistle, Holtby took down Nmecha in the box, earning a penalty kick. An opportunity to fire the penalty kick was given to Guirassy, who immediately kicked it into the bottom left corner to earn the first goal of the game.
The hope of an equaliser or survival for Holstein Kiel continues to dim when Johansson was shown a red card in the 8th minute for committing a foul against Adeyemi outside the box, leaving them with 10 men to battle Dortmund.
While Dortmund had the highest possession, Kiel nearly netted a goal, but the attempt was saved by goalkeeper Kobei before the halftime whistle.
A strong Dortmund did not wait until the second minute in the second half before it doubled its lead through a shot fired by Sabitzer, who converted the opposition’s defensive error into a goal.
Nmecha scored the last goal of the match in the 71st minute through a fine assist made by Svensson, sealing their space in the UEFA Champions League next season.
