They did it. A club with the image of losers for so many years, Bayer Leverkusen finally managed to win the first Bundesliga in its history this Sunday by winning largely against Werder Bremen (5-0). Undefeated this season in 43 matches, Xabi Alonso’s flock had an unforgettable season and this title, acquired on the 29th day of the championship with 16 points ahead of his runner-up, rewards a memorable year.
Obviously, while the match was played behind closed doors, this Sunday meeting had the feel of a big party at the BayArena. Incandescent from the penalty converted by Victor Boniface in the 25th minute, Leverkusen’s den exploded during the last goal scored by Florian Wirtz in the 90th minute. As soon as the 20-year-old playmaker scored, a pitch invasion took place and the party continued on the field for the German supporters. Historic images for the B04!
