    To the Bay Arena in Leverkusen, Germany..


    Celebrations continue for Bayer Leverkusen fans after the club clinched a Bundesliga football crown for the first time in their 120-year history.

    Leverkusen have trounced Werder Bremen 5-nil at home to clinch the German title with five matches to spare.

    Wild scenes erupted late in the game - with fans storming the pitch after Leverkusen's fourth and fifth goals.

    The win ends a run of 11 straight titles for Bayern Munich.
