Harry Kane will have to wait to end the "curse" to celebrate his first career title. With three games left in the Bundesliga, Bayern failed to mathematically secure the championship, after being held to a 3-3 draw at Leipzig after conceding a last-gasp goal.
However, success is now very close, as the team led by Vincent Kompany has a nine-point advantage and a goal difference of +30 over the Bayer Leverkusen followers.
Even without main striker Harry Kane, suspended for this match, Bayern had hoped to celebrate the title this weekend.
However, Leipzig started the match better, creating several clear chances early on. Goalkeeper Jonas Urbig made a brilliant save from Haidar, while Šeško missed from close range after a beautiful pass from Xavi Simons.
Leipzig took the lead after a quick counterattack in which Šeško scored a beautiful goal with the outside of the ball, with Urbi far from the goal, after a very precise pass from Xavi. In the following minutes, Leipzig doubled their lead with a header – or rather, an ear – from Klostermann after a cross from Raum.
In the second half, Bayern responded strongly. Eric Dier reduced the deficit with a header from Oliseh's corner, who scored himself just 46 seconds later after an assist from Gnabry. Bayern temporarily overturned the score with a beautiful goal from Leroy Sané, following a pass from Kimmich.
But in the final minute, Xavi Simons passed for Yussuf Poulsen, who passed the ball over Urbig to seal the tie.
Now, any other point or false step by Leverkusen on Sunday will officially give Bayern their 12th title in the last 13 seasons.
