The 27th day of the Bundesliga continued this Saturday with the traditional multiplex. Before the historic clash between Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, five matches began around 3:30 p.m. Solid leader of the championship, Bayer Leverkusen of Xabi Alonso, who decided to stay at the club at the end of the season, wanted to establish its national supremacy against Hoffenheim. However, it was the visitors who surprised the residents of the BayArena shortly after the half-hour mark. After a one-two with Wout Weghorst, Maximilian Beier opened his right foot on the left of the area and deceived Lukas Hradecky (0 -1, 33rd). Led to everyone's surprise, Bayer tried to react but neither Hofmann (45+1) nor Andrich (45+2) found the target. Returning from the locker room, the locals, who have not experienced defeat since May 27, 2023, pushed a little more to equalize but still came up against a well-established opposing block. If Wirtz made Baumann shine (54th), Andrich finally released his teammates at the end of regulation time (1-1, 88th).
Unstoppable this season, Bayer even won the three points in added time through Schick (2-1, 90+1). A success snatched at the wire allowing Xabi Alonso's men to consolidate their first place. In the other matches of the afternoon, Wolfsburg won (2-0) on the lawn of Werder Bremen, reduced to ten, thanks to an achievement by Maxence Lacroix (45+4th) and a goal from Lovro Majer (84th). For its part, Fribourg, carried by Gregoritsch (7th), Röhl (47th) and Doan (57th), caused Gladbach to fall heavily (2-0). Despite the tenure of Hugo Ekitike, Frankfurt could not do better than a draw (0-0) against Union Berlin. Finally, RB Leipzig, clinging to the break, overcame Mainz. In the standings, the RBL temporarily rises to 4th place, Frankfurt is 6th while Bayer is now 13 points ahead of Bayern, who are preparing to challenge the Marsupiaux.
