Leverkusen want to repeat last season’s feat

Another Bundesliga season begins and everything remains the same. Bayer Leverkusen creates another miracle and wins another match in added time.

Xabi’s team is becoming experts at winning at the limit. In moments when everyone is in a hurry, they stay calm to defeat their rival and finally achieve their goal.

The match began with the visitors clearly dominating. Borussia Park was pressing, but Rojillo forced the pace by making contact with their main man. Wirtz, who was a substitute against Stuttgart, moved all over the offensive line to drive the white defence crazy.

The second half started late and smoke from flares filled Borussia Park. The fans saw virtually nothing on the pitch and the match was stopped for almost ten minutes.

A reality check that woke up the reigning champions. They gradually got closer to Mönchengladbach, but were unable to complete the result.

In the end, they were burned by playing with fire. In a game with no obvious danger, Kleindienst received the ball and Boniface turned in a touch to equalise. Bayer’s defence is very poor, having shown signs of weakness at the start of the season.
