Bundesliga, the race for individual titles.

(Baonghean.vn) - From the moment the Bundesliga season began, it was almost certain that Bayern Munich would win their 5th championship. Therefore, the only excitement lay in the individual title races, especially the race for the top scorer, which would shorten the path to the Allianz Arena.

In this year's Bundesliga, Dortmund finished only third, 18 points behind Bayern Munich. But coach Thomas Tuchel still has reason to be proud as his favorite player, star striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, spectacularly won the "Top Scorer" award.

The Gabonese striker has scored 31 goals in 34 Bundesliga matches this season, one more than second-placed Lewandowski, a Bayern Munich forward.

Before round 34, Lewandowski was leading the scoring charts with 30 goals and only had to face Freiburg – a relatively weak opponent – ​​giving him a great chance to win the Golden Boot. Meanwhile, Aubameyang had only 29 goals and lacked the strong supporting players that Lewandowski had at Bayern Munich.

It's worth remembering that Lewandowski had previously been the Bundesliga's top scorer for two seasons, 2013/2014 (20 goals) and 2015/2016 (30 goals). The last time Lewandowski lost this title was in the 2014/2015 season.

Frankfurt's 32-year-old veteran Alexander Meier has been crowned Bundesliga's top scorer with 19 goals, surpassing big stars like Bayern Munich's Robert Lewandowski and Arjen Robben (both with 17 goals). The Frankfurt midfielder had been sidelined for an extended period due to injury. Meier only needed 26 appearances this season to score his 19 goals.

Dortmund entered the match against Werder Bremen in a relaxed mood, having essentially achieved their goal of securing a place in next season's Champions League. Ultimately, Dortmund secured a dramatic 4-3 victory, with Aubameyang scoring a brace.

Meanwhile, ironically, Robert Lewandowski failed to score in Bayern Munich's emphatic 4-1 victory over Freiburg. The Polish striker had numerous good opportunities to increase his goal tally, but Freiburg goalkeeper Schwolow denied him a single chance.

With 31 goals, Aubameyang is officially the top scorer in the Bundesliga this year. Following Aubameyang and Lewandowski is Cologne's Anthony Modeste with 25 goals. In fourth place is RB Leipzig's young player Timo Werner, making his Bundesliga debut, with 21 goals.

Wolfsburg's veteran striker Mario Gomez also had an incredibly impressive season with 16 goals. His senior teammate Lewandowski, after becoming the Bundesliga top scorer with Dortmund, then moved to Bayern Munich. It remains to be seen whether the same will happen with Aubameyang.
