Wow! Wow!
There will be S P O I L E R S ! ! ! ! ! !
Three, THREE, different game finished with a score of 5-0 or worse.
Borussia Dortmund 6 - 0 Arminia Bielefeld
Hanover 96 0 - 5 VfL Wolfsburg
Bayer Leverkusen 5 - 0 Borussia Monchengladbach (Michael Bradley's team in a relegation fight.)
The good news for Bradley is that the team right behind them is Arminia Bielefield and they actually lost 1 point differential point today.
So with one game to go, the bottom looks like this:
15. Borussia Monchengladbach: 30 pts (PD -23)
16. Arminia Bielefeld: 27 pts (PD -27)
17. Energie Cottbus: 27 pts (PD -30)
18. Karlsruhe: 26 pts (PD -28)
SIDE NOTE: Karlsruhe, playing for pride, won 3-1 today on the road (I guess technically "1 - 3").
So Borussia Monchengladbach can lose, but not by much, and Arminia Bielefeld can win, and B.M. will still advance. But if there is a 4 point swing, I don't know what the tie-breaker is. But I think A.B. would lose the tie breaker (if it is total wins), because they would only have 5 total wins on the season to B.M.'s 8.
Week 34 Matchups:
Energie Cottbus vs. Bayer Leverkusen (mid table at #9)
Arminia Bielefeld vs. Hanover 96 (this is winnable for Arminia)
B.M. vs Borussia Dortmund (tied for the last Euro spot with a better point differential by +22)
