Today I am going to be talking to you about the Bundesliga. This is the top division in the German football league. Below I am going to show a video which demonstrates the huge standard of the league.
The bundesliga has the highest average attendance per game in the world. It was only after a 1-0 loss by the German national team to Yugoslavia in the 1962 World Cup quarter final, was a national league made. It was created in Dortmund on the 28th of July 1962 by a new president of football in German who had only been elected that very day. When the league was formed there were five different leagues in Germany due to its division. Out of these leagues, 46 teams applied to join the new Bundesliga. Only 16 teams were picked. These decisions were made due to the teams success both on and off the field. The very first game in the Bundesliga was played on the 23rd of August 1963. FC Koln enede up winning the first ever season.
Over the last ten years Bayern Munich have proved to be unstoppable winning seven of ten Bundesliga titles. This includes winning five in a row from the 2013 season to the 2017 season. The only other teams to win the the last ten years have been Borussia Dortmund, who won in 2011 and 2012, and Wolfsburg who won in 2009.
