Bayer Leverkusen Set New European Unbeaten Record
Historic Draw Secures Europa League Final Spot
Unprecedented 49 Games Without Defeat
Bayer Leverkusen has etched their name into European football history by setting a new record for the longest unbeaten streak. The German club's remarkable run reached 49 games after a dramatic 2-2 draw with AS Roma in the second leg of their Europa League semi-final. This latest achievement extends Leverkusen's extraordinary period of dominance, which began in August 2023.
The draw against Roma was another display of Leverkusen's resilience. After going behind in the second half, the German side showed incredible determination to equalize through a 97th-minute goal from Josip Stanisic. This goal secured a 4-2 aggregate victory, sending Leverkusen through to the Europa League final against Atalanta.
Leverkusen's unbeaten run has been a testament to their quality and consistency. The team has overcome numerous challenges during this period, including injuries, player departures, and tough fixtures. Manager Xabi Alonso has instilled a winning mentality in his squad, crediting their hard work and dedication for this historic achievement.
With a place in the Europa League final secured, Leverkusen now have a chance to make history by winning their second major trophy of the season. They previously ended a 31-year trophy drought by claiming the Bundesliga title. A victory in the Europa League would cap off a remarkable campaign for the German side and cement their place among the elite clubs in Europe.
