Bayern Munich won an 11th consecutive Bundesliga title as they beat Cologne to overtake Borussia Dortmund on a thrilling final day.
Dortmund would have won their first title since 2011-12 had they beaten Mainz, but a 2-2 draw opened the door for Bayern.
They took advantage thank to Jamal Musiala's 89th-minute winner.
A Cologne penalty had cancelled out Kingsley Coman's earlier strike, but Musiala sent the away fans wild.
Dortmund's players and fans were left dejected despite coming back from 2-0 down at the break, with Sebastian Haller also having a first-half penalty saved.
It looked like their title rivals had handed them the title when Cologne's Dejan Ljubicic levelled from the penalty spot with just nine minutes remaining.
But Musiala curled home in the closing seconds to break the hearts of Dortmund, who equalised late on through Nicklas Sule.
It marked a successful end to the season for boss Thomas Tuchel, who replaced Julian Nagelsmann in March.

The last hours of Turkey's presidential race have turned increasingly sour as Recep Tayyip Erdogan bids to extend his 20 years in power by five more.
Ahead of Sunday's run-off vote, opposition rival Kemal Kilicdaroglu has courted nationalist votes by vowing to expel millions of Syrian refugees.
The president accused him of hate speech - and said a Kilicdaroglu victory would be a win for terrorists.
The opposition candidate trailed in the first round by 2.5 million votes.
The president is favourite, but his rival believes the margin could still be bridged - either by the 2.8 million supporters of an ultranationalist candidate who came third or by the eight million voters who did not turn out in the first round.
Before their campaigns drew to a close on Saturday evening, Mr Erdogan marked the anniversary of a 1960 coup with a visit to the mausoleum of an executed prime minister.
It was a reminder to voters that in 2016 he had faced down an attempted coup, and that the government would be safe in his hands.
Two men who were pulled from the sea off the coast of Devon have died, police have said.
Rescue teams found the men, both in their 20s, in the water at Oddicombe after being called on Saturday morning.
One man was declared dead at the scene. The other died after being taken to Torbay District Hospital.
Devon & Cornwall Police confirmed the men's next of kin have been informed and inquiries were ongoing into the incident.
Paris St-Germain goalkeeper Sergio Rico is in a "serious" condition in intensive care after a horse riding accident, his club says.
Rico, 29, was riding in the El Rocio region of Huelva in Spain when he was in a collision with a runaway horse and fell, local media reported.
The Spaniard was flown by helicopter to a hospital in Seville.
Rico was on the bench as PSG won a record 11th league title with a 1-1 draw at Strasbourg on Saturday.
He had returned to his native Spain after the squad were given time off following their win.
"He is in a serious condition," a PSG spokesperson said on Sunday.
The club later added it was "in constant contact with his loved ones".
The former Seville keeper joined the French champions in 2020 and spent the 2018-19 season on loan at Premier League side Fulham.
He has made 29 appearances for PSG since moving from Sevilla in September 2019.
"Lots of strength and a speedy recovery," his former club tweeted.
Tomas Holy's heroics in the penalty shootout were enough to take Carlisle United up to League One with victory over Stockport County in the League Two play-off final.
Holy saved Ryan Rydel's effort as the Cumbrians won 5-4 on spot-kicks after the two sides played out a 1-1 draw.
Jon Mellish's first-half own goal put Stockport in front but that was cancelled out late on by Omari Patrick.
After a goalless period of extra time, Connor Evans smashed home the first penalty for Stockport and Kristian Dennis followed suit in reply.
Holy dived to his right to beat away Rydel's shot, and Mellish stroked Carlisle ahead in the shootout.
Myles Hippolyte rolled Stockport's third spot-kick down the middle, but Ryan Edmondson was equally cool to send Ben Hinchliffe the wrong way.
Jack Stretton kept Stockport's hopes alive with a confident penalty, only for Owen Moxon to smash into the corner.
Will Collar's penalty finish proved academic, as Taylor Charters scored to win it and take Carlisle up.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is claiming victory in the Turkish election.
With counting ongoing, official results have him on around 52% of the vote.
His secular rival, Kemal Kilicdaroglu, is on around 47%
Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has won re-election extending his increasingly authoritarian rule into a third decade.
Thousands of people took the streets of Ankara and Istanbul holding flares and flags, while similar scenes of jubilation were seen in Berlin, as Erdogan's dominant yet divisive rule will now continue until 2028.
He won 52.14 per cent of the votes, with his rival Kemal Kilicdaroglu winning 47.86 per cent, and taunted his challenger: 'Bye bye bye Kemal'.
Russian President Vladimir Putin was amongst the first world leaders to congratulate the presiding leader, who he called his 'dear friend'. He said the win was evidence that the Turkish people appreciated Erdogan's 'independent foreign policy'.
He was followed by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak who said he looks forward to 'growing trade' and collaborating as 'Nato allies' with Turkey's president.

Five men have been sentenced to a total of more than 30 years in prison after the Premier League brought about a historic private prosecution to clamp down on piracy and the illegal streaming of Premier League matches.
The individuals involved, aged between 30 and 46, operated one of the UK's largest illicit streaming services and made millions of pounds selling TV sticks to over 50,000 customers and resellers, which allowed them to access streams illegally to watch most, if not all, of the most valuable sporting events in the world.
In what is the world's largest-ever prosecution of an illegal streaming network, the five men were sentenced at Chesterfield Justice Centre on Tuesday, after being found guilty of conspiracy to defraud, money laundering and contempt of court.

I go to England matches and so visits to Wembley are very frequent nowadays. The whole 'Wembley' experience is less of a football ground and now more of an events arena. Every spare bit of land around the stadium is slowly being built on. Even from 2016 and before Covid the fan zones have decreased in size and scope twice. Soon enough you will barely be able to see the ground until you're bang next to it given the mini town they've built in and around the site. Drinking options are severely limited now, especially so given the latest restrictions on drinking along the sides of Wembley Way (which was never really allowed but kind of tolerated mostly). The Green Man, Boxpark and The Torch are the only pubs/bars big enough to handle a large following and these get filled to the point of it being pointless queuing very quickly. The Wembley Park tube station has always creaked under the pressure of crowds and does a remarkable job to be fair, but it isn't really sufficient as one of the two main transport options for a national stadium. Inside, the lower bowl sees queues for bars and toilets that would again put off the most patient supporters. Club Wembley is the bees knees but so it should be given the ticket prices. I'm not anti-Wembley, I was one who actually wanted the new stadium to remain there for tradition purposes, but it just isn't a great experience for fans nowadays, especially for those wanting a few drinks and a walk about. Box Park is great and the outside fan zone was quite good yesterday but there just isn't the infrastructure or alternative options to cater for the crowds.
