Title in Germany As Good As Decided

Three hours before their match against Mainz, the Bayern fans and staff were surely hopeful that Schalke 04, Dortmund's bitter rivals, could prevent Borussia Dortmund from continuing their march towards their second title in a row.

But even Schalke was no match for Borussia D.

And, so, the team in black and yellow defeats the second- and third-placed teams in consecutive encounters.

Jefferson Farfan opened the scoring for Schalke, in the 8th minute, with a spectacular shot from outside the box, but, 9 minutes later, Piszczek equalized with an even more spectacular effort.
A scrappy goal by Kehl, in the 63rd minute, put Dortmund ahead.
And that's where they stayed.

For sure, Bayern knew they were left very few chances this season.

Maybe that's why they couldn't even beat Mainz, at home, later in the day. That one finished 0-0.

So, Borussia Dortmund is now 8 points ahead, with three matches left. Surely, they'll get two points from those...
