On April 15, Beijing time, the 29th round of the Bundesliga ushered in a key matchup, and Bayer Leverkusen hosted Werder Bremen. Boniface opened the scoring, Xhaka World Wave, Wirtz hat-tricked, and finally Bayer Leverkusen defeated Werder Bremen 5-0 to win the Bundesliga title in advance, the team won the Bundesliga for the first time in history, and equaled Juventus' legendary record of 43 games unbeaten across the season, and the 42-year-old Alonso became the strongest coach in team history.
In the earlier game of this round, Bayern beat Cologne 2-0 and ranked second with 63 points, so that Bayer Leverkusen only need to beat Werder Bremen in this round to win the first Bundesliga title in the team's history five rounds in advance. They had previously finished runners-up in the Bundesliga five times, but they struggled to reach the top of the Bundesliga, and now they are just one win away from being crowned champions.
In terms of team form, Bayer Leverkusen are the most consistent team in the top five leagues this season, there is no one, they have not lost this season, have won 42 games unbeaten in all competitions, and recently many of them have staged a stunner in the final period of the game, the team's on-the-spot adaptability and Alonso's coaching ability can be seen. Bremen's recent form has been poor, with 2 draws and 4 losses in the last 6 rounds without a win, and such a sluggish performance is difficult to compete with the powerful Bayer Leverkusen.
Bayer Leverkusen got into the game quickly when Inekapie's late tackle was saved by Zettle. Hofmann was brought down in the 22nd minute when he was in the box and the referee reviewed VAR and awarded a penalty, with Boniface calmly scoring to give Bayer Leverkusen a 1-0 lead.
Bayer Leverkusen continued to control the tempo of the game. Xhaka's long-range shot from the top of the arc is blocked by a defender. Hoffman's volley from inside the box was blocked again. Hoffman crossed the ball in the 38th minute and Adley blasted a shot over the crossbar to miss a chance to extend the lead. In the 52nd minute, Wirtz returned to make a pass, and Boniface shot high.
In the 60th minute, Boniface returned to the top of the arc, and Xhaka followed up to meet the ball and shot from a distance. In the 68th minute, Wirtz hit a high-quality long-range shot from the middle, and the ball flew into the net from the middle to take a 3-0 lead.
In the 83rd minute, Wirtz scored twice with a low shot into the near corner. In the 89th minute, Wirtz broke through the penalty area and scored a low shot to successfully score a hat and completely seal the victory.
After this victory, Bayer Leverkusen created two miracles, the first was to win the Bundesliga title five rounds ahead of schedule, breaking the curse of 120 years without a Bundesliga title in the team's history. Second, they are tied with Juventus for the longest unbeaten run in all competitions in Europe's top 10 leagues with a record of 43 games.
In addition to the Bundesliga title already in hand, there are two important titles waiting for them. Bayer Leverkusen have reached the final of the German Cup and will only need to beat Bundesliga side Kaiserslautern on 26 May to claim their second German Cup title. They are also one of the favourites to win the Europa League, beating West Ham United 2-0 in the first leg of their 4-8 to reach the last four.
Alonso has become the most successful coach in the history of Bayer Leverkusen, and he and his team are on their way to the goal of a treble.
