Wolfsburg turned over Werder Bremen 5-1 for their 16th home victory in 17 games to crown an unforgettable season with the Bundesliga title. A sell-out 30,000 crowd applauded team captain Josuee when he raised aloft the championship plate after the match, before the team headed off to Wolfsburg city hall, where the celebrations were set to continue.
Wolves wasted no time in ensuring they would not trip up at the final hurdle. With only six minutes played, Zvjezdan Misimovic pounced on a loose ball from Werder's Petri Pasanen to put the home side in front.
