Thunderbolt in the Bundesliga!

Bayer took over Bayern this Saturday (2-0), thus consolidating its leadership in the Bundesliga.

Leverkusen struck a big blow this Saturday within the German elite! Supported by its public, Bayer outclassed Bayern (3-0) in the 21e Bundesliga day. A real step forward in the title race for the team led by Xabi Alonso.

As a symbol, it was the full-back on loan from Munich to Leverkusen, Stanisic, who opened the scoring for Bayer (1-0, 18e). Grimaldo, for his part, scored the break goal at the start of the second half (2-0, 50e). When Frimpong concluded a murderous counterattack in added time to close the festival (3-0, 90e+5) while Neuer strangely rose to the forefront.

Never sacred

Thus beaten and well beaten, the Bavarian ogre finds himself left behind by his challenger in the race for the Meisterschale. Five lengths from the summit with 13 days to go. Vice-champion of Germany five times in its history (1997, 1999, 2000, 2002 and 2011), “Neverkusen”, too often mocked across the Rhine for its virgin record of national coronation, has the cards in hand more than ever .
