Bayer Leverkusen, led by former footballer Xabi Alonso, is experiencing a historic season. After becoming Bundesliga champion for the first time in its history, the German team is now pursuing a treble that would be legendary.
As of today, May 10, 2024, Leverkusen has not only won the German league, but has done so without losing in any competition. An unbeaten record that could be even greater if they manage to maintain their streak until the end of the season.
More news about the Bundesliga
In the Europa League, Xabi Alonso’s team is in the final after eliminating Roma in an agonizing second leg where Stanišić scored the tying goal in the 97th minute. Their rival in the final will be Atalanta Bergamo, a team that, a priori, seems inferior to the Germans.
To complete the treble, Leverkusen also has the DFB Pokal final pending, where they will face Kaiserlautern, a second division team. A meeting that, on paper, should be favorable for those from Leverkusen.
If Bayer Leverkusen manages to win these two finals, they will have achieved a historic “silver treble”: Bundesliga, German Cup and Europa League. A milestone that, without a doubt, would mark an era in German and European football.
Regardless of what happens in the finals, Bayer Leverkusen’s season is already historic. Xabi Alonso has demonstrated his worth as a coach in his first experience on an elite bench, and has taken his team to heights never before imagined. The future seems promising for this Leverkusen, which has become one of the most fearsome teams in Europe. All football lovers are looking forward to seeing them play in the Champions League next season.
