Bayern Munich reclaim Bundesliga crown behind Harry Kane, Vincent Kompany

Bayern Munich won its 12th Bundesliga title in 13 tries on Sunday when Bayer Leverkusen drew Freiburg, sealing a first title for Vincent Kompany as top-flight manager as a first top-flight title for striker Harry Kane.

The Bavarians moved onto 76 points on Saturday, nine clear of defending champions Leverkusen prior to Sunday’s kickoff at Freiburg’s Europa-Park Stadion. The hosts took a 2-0 lead and Xabi Alonso’s visitors got late goals from Florian Wirtz and Jonathan Tah but could not find the winning goal to prolong their title defense.
