Bayer Leverkusen depended on itself to be champion this Sunday, in front of its audience, and did not let this first match ball escape, unleashing the party in its stadium, where the fans invaded the field of play even in the last moments of the match , before the match ended, unleashing scenes of chaos due to the problems of stadium employees to contain the joy so that the clash could end.
Florian Wirtz’s goals in the 83rd and 90th minutes led to massive invasions of the pitch. The last moments of the match were also played in the middle of a red haze due to the smoke from the flares that the Leverkusen ultras lit in one of the backgrounds.
Before, Wirtz had scored another goal (68) in this match, in which Bayer Leverkusen’s first goals were scored by the Nigerian Victor Boniface (25 from a penalty) and by the Swiss Granit Xhaka (60).
It was the 43rd match without losing this season for Bayer Leverkusen, which has spectacular figures of 38 wins and 5 draws.
The harvest of the Werskelf (‘Factory Eleven’, nickname of a team founded by the chemical and pharmaceutical company Bayer in 1904) may continue in the coming weeks. In the Europa League they will face West Ham on Thursday in London in the second leg of the quarterfinals, after getting the tie back on track with a 2-0 victory in Germany. In the German Cup, Leverkusen will be the big favorite in the final on May 25 in Berlin against Kaiserlautern, a team from the second division.
That Cup final will be played three days after the Europa League final in Dublin, in what could be the finishing touch to an unforgettable season.
There’s no stopping it anymore! 😭🥹😍🥰🖤❤️#ForOurDream #Winnerkusen #DeutscherMeisterSVB
