stand up even in these times. to write the most participants for mosques and some little else yet police order the march to end early citing overcrowding. nearby a different rally with another urgent message over a 1000 gathered under the black lives matter bana to call for an end to every day racism. what connects these 2 demonstrations is a concern that intolerance is continuing even in the middle of a pandemic these communities have come out despite the difficulties of demonstrating under strict hygiene rules to make sure their voices. continue to be heard. even after a wave of anti racism demonstrations globally in recent weeks participants say little has changed. and their brother trend is not something that i love. or is going to be told like for them it's

a problem that always been we've always been fighting for because he's given more with this one in one or 2 he had something happen again with a black person i don't know so it's not really helping business is that it's a big part of my life this injustice in the world racism discrimination we're constantly confronted with it all even when you grow up in germany it doesn't matter where you grow up police violence is everywhere racism and injustice are everywhere and i'm here to add my voice calling for change. on the floor and the. mosques of not an awful thing to demand for equality and justice. it was the final match day of the bundesliga season with the title decided the big battle was for 4th place champions league qualification the spot was in the glove box to lose as they played hurt other lead meanwhile 5th place leverkusen hope that

a good lock box slip up might let them speak ahead in the table. and began the afternoon with arguably their best player on the bench it's made way so it was up to kevin folland to strike the right told. that he did just 2 minutes and i look at deflection setting him up for a cool finish of his tentacles of the season but for laver coups and there was soon bad news from glaad for the whole scots off the mark on 17 minutes i've you know it's tough my last hole must have good work from below and below to make it one nil which is hope both games stood at half time. it looked like liver cruisin had turned up the heat on blood but in the 2nd half. but falling was denied a 2nd on 67 minutes when the video assistant referee spotted a photo in the build up. 10 minutes later i'm glad the

hosts had 4th place so when i was at the press of them a little easier than ours was. just go to consolation go through captain feet out to be 7 playing perhaps his last game for the club. as the result filtered through to live accuse and the disappointment was stark but they can comfort themselves with europe a league qualification after a decent campaign. meanwhile celebrated their champions league spot as well as anyone could expect an empty stadium. celebrations all around talking us through the action of this season's final match day is a lima her talking for it's the limit so good to see you as always so what was it to play for on match day $34.00 i mean where do i start as the piece just touched

upon we have the champion sneak spots to play for but also the europa league play says and then let's not forget in the lower half of the bundesliga table it was all about survival i'm talking about relegation i'm talking about who goes up who goes down and i might as well mention here even by and munich despite having wrapped up the title weeks ago even they had something to play for and that was reaching the 100 goal mark which they did thanks to thomas maroon us going goal number 100 yesterday and they haven't done that since 972 but of course the biggest story here is different acacia about ok so you referenced the relegation how did that sag play out oh it was so dramatic i mean we had dissolved off and made up they had up they had been both of them wanting desperately that time. relegation playoff spot i'm talking about sweet 16 precious number 16 and blaming of course needed a win but they also had to hope that deserved off the loose end at the end guess what mike they got that so lame and i have never seen them play like this all

season this is a team that had struggled defensively they barely could score goals i mean up until that point that only scored a handful of goals at home holmes and then yesterday their score 6 against cologne they end up $61.00 winning against cologne also because of the incredible performances of. but you of course it wasn't all their own doing because they got a little bit of help from only one berlin who ended up beating. 3 nil right so it's bye bye for dissolved off and good agreement of course they're not done yet yeah they were fired or something i mean heaven knows let's talk about the top 4 for a moment who's going to be playing champions league football so we already know that by and munich and a month off and then joining them yesterday leipsic and and. it was a at the report already showed that there was a very tight battle between gladbach and they have a coups and. both of them ended up winning

a match. and the season on $65.00 points and leave a cruising on $63.00 so that means they have a coups and have to settle for a europa league spot now but i also have to give a special shout out to hoffenheim because hoffenheim thinks andriy come of it i mean he had been injured for most of the season the 2nd half of the season and he gave dortmund a spanking yesterday for the goal is and because of that richter. europa league spot that means wolves spork and up in the europa league qualification spot in about the 20 seconds we have left you know of course that the bundesliga was a 1st league to come back during the 10 demick what's the verdict how did. i'm at the end it was really successful we all had our reservations of course but the hygiene plan was very effective for the effect if that even a lot of other european leagues ended up emulating them waddle and at the end i have to say the atmosphere probably did suffer but the quality of the football did
