Thrills but no spills on the Bundesliga final day

Episode notes

The Athletic's Raphael Honigstein is joined by Christoph Biermann and Kevin Hatchard to look back at an exciting final day of the season in the Bundesliga as Werder Bremen spectacularly won only their second home game of the season to avoid relegation, Fortuna Dusseldorf went down after a defeat at Union Berlin and Gladbach clinched the final Champions League spot ahead of Leverkusen.

Elsewhere there were joyous celebrations at Bayern but without the usual celebratory beer soaking, a miserable end to the season for Schalke who find themselves mired in crisis, and we take a look at the goings on in Bundesliga II as Hamburg blow the chance to qualify for the promotion play-off.
