I was really disappointed at Borussia Dortmund as they played wretchedly against a Mainz side that has lost 4 games in their previous games, in the game they were expected to win and were losing 2-1 but, for eight minutes, the trophy was in their hands. Bayern Munich we’re just lucky. Bayern Munich knew they needed to beat Cologne and hope for a favour from Mainz, and it did happen. Zero mentality. They’ll never be champions again so long as they have a poor mentality like this. Mainz is a mid table team and you’re at home. It’s not rocket science.

Yes I am also and the recent display by Borussia Dortmund against Mainz undoubtedly infuriated the crowd. Even though Mainz may have been considered an underdog due to their recent defeat. An opponent momentum can drastically change during a game as it did for Dortmund during those key eight minutes. Bayern Munich accomplishments cannot be entirely credited to luck. They were aware of the significance of defeating Cologne while also hoping for a successful result versus Mainz. In a sport that take into account a variety of elements beyond a team psychological state the concept of a poor mentality can be arbitrary and convoluted. Any squad has the ability to succeed with the correct tactics and tenacity.

I would say "not entirely" but definitely a bit of luck was involved for them. Think about it this way, even if they won 20-0, their last win of the season would have meant absolutely nothing if Dortmund won, which means that it wasn't up to Bayern that they won, it was up to Dortmund if Bayern would get the title or not.

We could consider that a bit of a luck if possible and I believe that it is going to be something unimportant at this point since the season is already over and there is nothing more to do. I do believe however that the best thing in this case for Dortmund would be to sell Jude and use that money to build a bigger depth for the squad so they do not have a situation where one player injured means a lot of rough period for them anymore.
