VIDEO: Beer shower for Xabi Alonso! Bayer Leverkusen boss drenched in dressing room after delivering Bundesliga title as boozy celebrations begin for Bayern Munich conquerors

Bayer Leverkusen players and Alonso's support staff drenched the Spaniard in beer after he guided the club to a historic Bundesliga title win by beating Werder Bremen 5-0 on Sunday. The manager was later spotted drinking a pint of beer out of a huge German glass while celebrating the triumph.

It has been a memorable season for Die Werkself, who lifted the Bundesliga title for the first time in the club's history and could go on and finish the campaign with an unbeaten record. They had finished runners-up on four occasions in the span of six seasons around the turn of the century thus earning the infamous nickname 'Neverkusen', but that moniker will now be scrapped thanks to Alonso's stellar work.

The newly crowned German champions will now aim to make it to the Europa League last-four stage as they are all set to face West Ham in the second leg of their quarter-final fixture. In the first leg in Germany, the club registered a 2-0 win, and will be heavy favourites to progress on home soil.
