Bayer Leverkusen, under the guidance of their brilliant coach, Xabi Alonso, has just made history in the most spectacular way possible.

Leverkusen entered the second leg of their Europa League semi-final against AS Roma with a comfortable 2-0 lead. But the Italian side wasn’t going down without a fight. They managed to score two goals, leveling the score for the night. However, Leverkusen’s resilience shone through as they fought back to secure a 2-2 draw, advancing to the final with an impressive 4-2 aggregate victory.

Bayer Leverkusen has now gone an astonishing 49 games unbeaten in all competitions. Let that sink in for a moment. They have surpassed the previous record of 48 games, set by the legendary Benfica team way back in 1965. That’s right, Leverkusen has outdone a record that stood tall for nearly six decades!

Leverkusen’s incredible journey this season could see them etch their name in the history books even further. They have the opportunity to become the first-ever team to go through an entire Bundesliga season without losing a single match. Imagine the celebrations if they pull it off!

And if that wasn’t enough, Leverkusen is just four games away from achieving an unbeaten treble. With two league games and two finals remaining, they are in pole position to win three trophies without losing. It’s a feat that would cement their status as one of the greatest teams of all time.

It’s no wonder that Xabi Alonso, the mastermind behind this incredible run, has decided to stay put at Leverkusen for the upcoming season. With the chance to make even more history, who would want to leave?

So, mark your calendars for the Europa League final, where Bayer Leverkusen will face the formidable Atalanta. It promises to be a thrilling encounter between two in-form teams. Can Leverkusen’s unbeaten streak continue, or will Atalanta find a way to halt their march towards glory?

There’s no doubt that Bayer Leverkusen’s 2022–23 campaign will leave a lasting impression. They have already achieved something truly special, and the best may yet come. Stay tuned, football fans, because history is unfolding right before our eyes!
