BERLIN ¨C Bayern Munich secured its 34th German league title on Sunday without kicking a ball after title rival Bayer Leverkusen was held to a 2-2 draw at Freiburg, leaving the leader with an unassailable eight-point lead with two games left to play and clinching a first major title for Harry Kane.

Leverkusen needed to win on Sunday to maintain any mathematical chance of claiming the title after Bayern drew 3-3 at RB Leipzig on Saturday. But Sunday¡¯s result left last season¡¯s champion in second place on 68 points, with Bayern on 76 and sealing its record-extending 33rd Bundesliga title since the introduction of the top league in 1963.

¡°We can take a moment now to enjoy winning the Bundesliga,¡± said Bayern coach Vincent Kompany in a club statement.

¡°What an incredible feeling! I want to congratulate the players for their outstanding effort throughout the season. You¡¯ve done this together. You¡¯ve won it as a team.¡±

¡°The season¡¯s not over yet, and there¡¯s still so much to look forward to. Let¡¯s finish strong, together,¡± Kompany, in his first season at the club, said.

Bayern will take part in the new-format Club World Cup starting in June in the United States.

The Bavarians, who all gathered in Munich to watch Leverkusen¡¯s game together, will be presented with the league trophy on Saturday in their last home game of the season against Borussia Moenchengladbach.

Bundesliga top scorer Kane, who won his first major title at the age of 31, posted a video of himself and teammates singing ¡°We are the Champions¡± after the end of the Leverkusen game.

The England captain, who two weeks ago broke a league record with his 60th goal in his first 60 league games for Bayern, also looks set to become the first player in Bundesliga history to be crowned top scorer in both his first two seasons.

¡°Congratulations to Bayern,¡± said Leverkusen coach Xabi Alonso, who last season led his team to a domestic league and cup double.

¡°It is a deserved league win. They were the better, the more consistent team.¡±
