Bundesliga: Leverkusen continues unbeaten streak with 5-0 victory over Bochum

Bayer Leverkusen Makes History with 50th Consecutive Unbeaten Game

In a stunning display of dominance, Bayer Leverkusen secured its 50th consecutive unbeaten game across all competitions with a resounding 5-0 victory over Bochum in the Bundesliga. The win not only avenged their last season’s defeat to Bochum but also surpassed Benfica’s previous record of 48 unbeaten games.

Since their loss to Bochum almost a year ago, Xabi Alonso’s team has been on an unstoppable streak, clinching their first Bundesliga title and securing a spot in both the German Cup and Europa League finals. The team’s midfielder, Robert Andrich, expressed the significance of their achievement, stating, “We want to get two titles there and then go on vacation with the triple in our backpack.”

With upcoming finals against Atalanta in the Europa League and Kaiserslautern in the German Cup, Leverkusen shows no signs of slowing down. Despite Bochum’s early efforts, a red card for Felix Passlack in the 15th minute shifted the momentum in Leverkusen’s favor. Goals from Patrik Schick, Victor Boniface, Amine Adli, Josip Stanišić, and Álex Grimaldo sealed the victory for Leverkusen.

As Leverkusen celebrates their historic achievement, Bochum faces a crucial final game against Werder Bremen to secure their spot in the Bundesliga. Leverkusen’s remarkable unbeaten run has not only solidified their dominance in the league but has also set a new standard for European football.
