No surprises here either. Nürnberg and Braunschweig suck and get relegated. Hamburg sucks less and can save themselves in the relegation playoff.

One might have expected the relegation trio to go all out, but they were all basically flat. Schalke showed to their “fan-allies” Nürnberg, and kicked their ass, so that was that. Hoffenheim also played with honor and went for the jugular against Braunschweig, getting an easy win. The Braunschweigers would have had to attack, and were completely unable. HSV actually did the best, and for at least the first half managed to square off evenly against Mainz. However the hosts needed a win to assure they could hold off Augsburg for Europe. They pressed harded, and perhaps HSV knew at that time that their result was irrelevant, and Mainz broke through for the win. The Hamburgers now have to worry about the playoff with the 2.Liga’s Greuther Fürth.

Champions Bayern München dicked around for most of the match, with oldtimer Claudio Pizzarro finally getting the win in injury time.

Dortmund went out in style, ripping Berlin’s ass. Also, Robert Lewandowski finished his Neon career with a couple of goals, which gave him the Bundesliga’s top goal scorer title.

Leverkusen had a rough time with Bremen, but managed to pull out a win to hold on to the last Champions League spot. Wolfsburg was hoping for the Aspirins to slip up. The VWs played a strong match against Gladbach, but their victory still left them in 5th place, outside of the big league.

Augsburg capped off a fine season with a hard fought win over Frankfurt. The Fuggers kept the pressure on Mainz for the last Euro spot, and although they fell short, they finished with their best campaign ever.

Total attendance was good on the final day, even though there was hardly anything to play for. 412,790 (avg 45,866), and the only venues *not* sold out was Hannover! (Almost, about 98% full)
