The 2011–12 Bundesliga was the 49th season of the Bundesliga, Germany's premier football league. The season started on 5 August 2011 with the opening match involving defending champions Borussia Dortmund and ended with the last games on 5 May 2012. The traditional winter break was held between the weekends around 17 December 2011 and 20 January 2012. The league comprised eighteen teams: The best fifteen teams of the 2010–11 season, the best two teams from the 2010–11 2nd Bundesliga and the winners of the relegation play-off between the 16th-placed Bundesliga team and the third-placed 2nd Bundesliga team. Since Germany climbed from fourth to third place in the UEFA association coefficient rankings at the end of the 2010–11 season,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.xs4all.nl/~kassiesa/bert/uefa/data/method4/crank2011.html )〕 the league gained an additional group stage berth for the UEFA Champions League. ==Teams== The league comprised eighteen teams: Eintracht Frankfurt and FC St. Pauli were directly relegated after finishing the 2010–11 season in the bottom two places. Frankfurt ended a six-year tenure in the Bundesliga, while St. Pauli only made a cameo one-year appearance in the top flight and directly returned to the second level. The relegated teams were replaced by Hertha BSC, champions of the 2010–11 2. Bundesliga, and runners-up FC Augsburg. The Bavarian side made their debut at the highest level of football in Germany, while Hertha directly returned to the Bundesliga after just one year at the second tier. A further place in the league was decided through a two-legged play-off between Borussia Mönchengladbach, the 16th-placed team of the 2010–11 Bundesliga, and VfL Bochum, the 3rd-placed 2nd Bundesliga team. Mönchengladbach won the series 2–1 on aggregate and therefore retained its Bundesliga spot. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「2011–12 Bundesliga」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
