On May 18, Beijing time, the final round of the Bundesliga was staged, and Leverkusen, who finally won the championship in advance, defeated Augsburg 2-1 at home, and was unbeaten in 34 games in the Bundesliga this season, creating the best result in team history, which is also the first time in the history of Leverkusen that the league is undefeated in the whole season.
Because the Europa League final will be played in a few days, Alonso will continue to rotate this game, and the core such as Wirtz and Xhaka will be on the bench. Despite this, Bayer Leverkusen took the lead early.
In the 12th minute, Bayer Leverkusen made a steal in front of the goalkeeper and caused a mistake by the visiting goalkeeper, and then Boniface received a pass from a team-mate and easily pushed it into the empty net to break the deadlock for his team.
In the 27th minute, the score was rewritten again, Bayer Leverkusen laid siege to the opponent, and after the shot was blocked, the ball came to Andrich, and he immediately followed up with his heel to extend the advantage for the team.
After taking a 2-0 lead, Bayer Leverkusen began to relax, and they were late to score a third goal to kill the suspense early. This also gave Augsburg hope, and in the 62nd minute, a Bayer Leverkusen player made a mistake in his own half, and after Augsburg made a steal, Como finally scored to make it 1-2. A few minutes later, Augsburg missed a chance and came close to equalising. Fortunately, Bayer Leverkusen did not make any more mistakes after that, and finally defeated their opponents smoothly and ended the Bundesliga with a victory.
After this game, Bayer Leverkusen have gone 51 games unbeaten in all competitions this season, and they continue to set a new record for a single season unbeaten in team history. Bayer Leverkusen will also play in the Europa League and German Cup finals in the next week, and if they win both of these games, they will create a miracle, the Bundesliga powerhouse, not only to win the treble, but also to achieve 53 seasons unbeaten, they are two wins away from this great achievement.
In terms of relegation, the situation changed dramatically on the night. Union Berlin, which was originally ranked 16th, was once tied 1-1 at home by Freiburg. In stoppage time, Habele's goal eventually helped Union Berlin beat Freiburg 2-1, and after this game, Union Berlin staged a victorious escape, and they overtook Bochum in the final round to successfully avoid relegation.
On the road, Bochum suffered a 4-1 defeat to Bremen, with Mainz (Wolfsburg 3-1 away) and Union Berlin both picking up three points, dropping Bochum to 16th place and having to play in the play-offs. As for Cologne, before the start of the last 1 round, they are left with only the theoretical possibility of playing in the play-offs. As a result, Cologne suffered a 1-4 defeat away to Heidenheim, and after this game, Cologne ranked second to last and was unfortunately relegated in the end!
