After Bayern Munich’s narrow victory against Augsburg (3-2), Bayer Leverkusen saw the Bavarians come back one step. With one game less on the pitch at Borussia Mönchengladbach (13th), Xabi Alonso’s gang therefore had the mission to win so as not to lose ground to the Rekordmeister. And it started quickly since Nadiem Amiri quickly fell on Moritz Nicolas (5th). While the Fohlen could have unblocked the situation via Luca Netz (22nd), it was the Werkself like the possibilities of Florian Wirtz who yielded nothing (24th and 57th).
