Bastian Schweinsteiger's backheel goal that won the Bundesliga

Bayern Munich were crowned Bundesliga champions on Saturday after a 1-0 win at Eintracht Frankfurt, and the winning goal from Bastian Schweinsteiger was worthy of winning the title.

It looked like the Bavarians may have to wait another week when David Alaba dragged his 27th-minute penalty wide.

Bayern took an overdue lead seven minutes after the restart with a moment of pure brilliance from Schweinsteiger.

Arjen Robben released Philipp Lahm down the right and his low drilled cross allowed Schweinsteiger to delicately flick a shot past Frankfurt goalkeeper Oka Nikolov with his heel.

Meanwhile, second-placed Borussia Dortmund won 4-2 at home to Augsburg, but could not prevent Bayern from clinched the crown after 28 of 34 rounds - two rounds quicker than their own record of winning in the 30th round in the 1972/73 and 2002/03 seasons.
