Harry Kane and Bayern Munich's frustration was short-lived as Bayern Munich officially clinched the Bundesliga title after Bayer Leverkusen drew 2-2 against Freiburg, the result needed to end the title race.

With just two games remaining, Leverkusen are eight points behind Bayern Munich and can no longer afford to catch up with their rivals, thus ending their dream of a league title even before the matches against Borussia Dortmund and Mainz. In other words, Leverkusen's chances of winning titles this season are over.

Despite this, no one can say that Leverkusen didn't at least try to delay the Bavarians' party, as they controlled 70% of Freiburg's possession during the first half, but the home team were more assertive and managed to get a goal before the break, among the three shots on target during the match.

The lead built up by Max Eggstein in the 44th minute was extended shortly after the break when Hincapé ended up scoring an own goal on Manzambi's head in the 49th minute. In this scenario, Xabi Alonso's side needed three goals to prevent an early exit from the Bundesliga.

There was every indication that the score would stand after the second goal notoriously discouraged last season's champions, but the fans believed again in the 82nd minute when Wirtz made a good individual run and hit the keeper's corner to reduce the deficit. Four minutes later, Jonathan Tah scored the equalizer and created a sense of urgency in the quest for victory, but Freiburg resisted the final pressure.

The first title of Harry Kane's career has finally happened

Until his first official title, Harry Kane had to play in 65 different leagues to finally achieve glory, with a trophy that will come in a special way due to the 24 goals he scored in 29 games, guaranteeing him the Bundesliga's top scorer this season.
