Freshly eliminated in the Champions League by Bayern Munich, Bayer Leverkusen found the Bundesliga this Sunday, moving on the lawn of Stuttgart. In the event of a victory, the Werkself had the opportunity to return to six points from the Bavarian club which has been first in the first place for many months. Finally, after a prolific and spectacular encounter, Xabi Alonso's men accomplished their mission. While Ermedin Demirovic (15th), then Nick Woltemade on the return from the locker room (48th), allowed the VFB to seek a comfortable advantage in the score.

Even when Jérémie Frimpong reduced the gap in the score (2-1, 56th), the locals have gone out thanks to the goal against his Xhaka granite camp (3-1, 62nd). Finally, the Leverkusen revolt took place with a goal from Piero Hincapié (3-2, 68th). The end of the meeting then became surreal with the goal against his Angelo Stiller camp who put the two teams up to the height at the end of the match (3-3, 88th). Finally, like last season, it was Patrik Schick who gave victory to the B04 in additional time (4-3, 90+4th). With this crazy but precious victory, Leverkusen returns six points from Bayern Munich. Stuttgart is a peer the check and stagnates in tenth place.
