BERLIN, May 4 (Xinhua) -- German soccer powerhouse Bayern Munich sealed the title of Bundesliga on Sunday after they secured a 0-0 draw at Wolfsburg. Bayern were not at their best in Wolfsburg, but it was enough for a goalless draw and Werder Bremen - ten points behind - can no longer leapfrog Bayern with three match days left.
It's the 21st title Bayern have won the Bundesliga, and it's the seventh double for Bayern. Earlier last month, they crashed Dortmund to claim the German Cup.
They had already won the league and cup double in 1969, 1986, 2000, 2003, 2005 and 2006.
Ottmar Hitzfeld won his 7th German championship and his 17th trophy as club coach.
The Bayern coach rested a few injured players, including captain Oliver Kahn, Miroslav Klose and Franck Ribery.

Bayern were under pressure from the first whistle as VfL created almost all opportunities, but their finishing let the hosts down. Edin Dzeko missed an early opportunity in the 4th minute when clean through before Marcelinho squandered further chances in the first half.
The "Wolves" continued to be the better team after the break, with Marcelinho and Ricardo Costa going close, but Bayern held on for a draw - and the Bundesliga title.
"It's a special achievement," outgoing coach Ottmar Hitzfeld said. "There was a lot of expectation and the pressure was enormous but now we've done it."
