In a key match in the 30th round of the Bundesliga that ended in the early morning of April 22, Beijing time, the new Bundesliga champion Bayer Leverkusen drew 1-1 with Dortmund away and continued to be unbeaten in the season, and the number of unbeaten games has increased to 45, setting a new record again.
Last weekend, Bayer Leverkusen won the Bundesliga five rounds ahead of schedule and successfully won the first Bundesliga title in the team's history. Therefore, in this match against Dortmund, Bayer Leverkusen made some rotations. Boniface, Schick, Wirtz and other main players did not start this game.
After the opening, the two sides attacked and defended each other. In the 30th minute, Frimpong collapsed near the penalty line, and the referee ruled that there was no penalty based on VAR tips. In the 64th minute, Frimpong fell in the penalty area under the defense of Schlotterbeck, and the referee still did not say anything.
In the 81st minute, the deadlock was broken when Sabitzer assisted Phil Kruger's volley to give Dort a 1-0 lead at home.
In the 90th minute, a clash broke out between the two sides, and after the referee watched the VAR, he canceled the red card and changed the yellow card to Bonifes, who came on as a substitute. In the seventh minute of stoppage time, Bayer Leverkusen once again staged a good play of equalizing the whistle, and Stanišić equalized with a stoppage-time header, and the two sides finally drew 1-1.
Bayer Leverkusen has accumulated 80 points in 30 rounds, which is as many as 14 points ahead of second-place Bayern. With Bayer Leverkusen's thrilling draw with Borussia Dort, they remain unbeaten this season and have expanded their tally to 45 games.
Bayer Leverkusen, also led by the 42-year-old Alonso, continued to record the longest unbeaten run in Europe. It is worth noting that Bayer Leverkusen is also the first team in the history of the Bundesliga to be unbeaten in the first 30 rounds.
After beating Borussia Dortmund, Bayer Leverkusen's remaining four games against Stuttgart, Eintracht Frankfurt, Bochum and Augsburg still have the chance to win the Bundesliga unbeaten.
