The Bundesliga was the first of the major leagues to confirm two teams relegated (Kaiserslautern and Hertha Berlin) and two promotions from the B (Eintracht Frankfurt and Greuther Furth).
Here are pics, mainly of Schalke, because it was Raul's final home match.
LOL @ Papadopoulos' face in this picture!
In other GREAT news, Jefferson (Jeffy) Farfan renewed his contract, signing for another 4 years! Immense happiness and relief can be seen on his face.
But it was Raul's big day. And Schalke will play Champions League football next season as well!
And this is how I will always remember him - the great star who can sometimes be a little kid just like all kids everywhere.
*sniffs* Goodbye, Raul. Just like when you left Real Madrid, I will remember you. ♥
Some pics of Borussia Dortmund and Lucas Barrios, who will be leaving the Bundesliga to join Guangzhou Evergrande in China. Good luck, Barrios, but WTF????
And a gratuitous pic of Mario Gomez celebrating. Bayern, of course, will be playing Champions League football next season as well, currently second in the Bundesliga, but their place in the Champions League final this year would have ensured them a berth in the CL next season anyway. :)
I don't what it is with this guy, but all we can do is enjoy him....
There are some interesting transfers happening for next season. I'll make a post later on about it. :)
