Bayer Neverlusen Back to Bayer Leverkusen After Europa League Final Defeat

0

Delhi: Xabi Alonso-led Bayer Leverkusen have remained undefeated for the entire 23-24 season and have gone on to have a 51 win streak. This streak has led to them to an invincible Bundesliga title. The historic run by a team that was previously a mid-table team has led the fans to call Bayer Leverkusen as Bayer Neverlusen. The 51 game undefeated streak is the longest undefeated streak in the history of European football and consisted of some very fashionable late comebacks by Bayern in the dying minutes of the match. Alas, the streak has come to an end as Bayer Leverkusen succumbed to defeat in the Europa League Final against Atalanta BC.

No Miracle Comeback This Time

Bayer Leverkusen came into the Europa League finals as favorites to win the trophy. Having not lost since May 2023. They faced Atalanta BC in hopes to have a historic undefeated treble but sadly this could not be so. Atalanta BC striker Ademola Lookman ran riot and scored a Europa League Final hattrick to secure the win for Atalanta. Fans really hoped for another miracle comeback from the German side, as they have seen so many times before this season but it never happened and Bayer Leverkusen succumbed to a 3-0 defeat in a match which was of the utmost importance.

As It Turns Out Bayer Leverkusen Can Be Defeated

Fans around the world had started wondering whether Bayer Leverkusen can actually be defeated after the sort of football they have been playing all season but it turns out the 52nd game was the one where fans were proved wrong and ended the undefeated treble dreams of the German side. Currently Bayer Leverkusen are all set to play in the DFB Pokal final on 25th May against FCK and despite the defeat to Atalanta are still considered as favorites to win the DFB Pokal.
