Unbelievable Bayern Munich wins the championship and fires two managers

Although they won the Meisterschale, Bayern Munich chose to part ways with Oliver Kahn, who was not present at the Bavarians' championship celebration yesterday. 

After yesterday's tumultuous events, speculation spread this morning about Kahn's reaction to the announcement of his dismissal. However, the former Bayern goalkeeper promptly denied these claims: 'It is not at all true that I lost my temper after receiving news of my dismissal. On Friday, Herbert Hainer called me and informed me of the decision. It was a calm and direct conversation. I was only surprised by the speed, as the decision had been made in advance. On Saturday morning I received a message saying that I would not have to participate in the game. 

I accepted this decision calmly. I am naturally disappointed, but I am very satisfied with this championship and happy for the team, the coach and our fans,' Kahn said on his Twitter profile.

Khan's words
"I would have liked to celebrate the title with you, but I was forbidden to do so," were the words of Oliver Kahn a few minutes after the final whistle of the Cologne match that sealed the 33rd Bavarian Bundesliga triumph. His place will be filled by 55-year-old Jan-Christian Dressen.

Kimmich does not agree: 'Goodbye Kahn and Salihamidzic? Wrong timing'
"Regardless of how you assess it, the club could have waited 2-3 days to announce it. If you win the championship and then you get a message like this, you are on an emotional rollercoaster,' Kimmich's words.
