Bayer Leverkusen Sets New Unbeaten Record in European Competition

Bayer Leverkusen, under the guidance of coach Xabi Alonso, has accomplished a historic milestone by extending their unbeaten streak to 35 matches, setting a new record in European competition.

The team showcased resilience in a gripping UEFA Europa League encounter against Qarabag, where they found themselves trailing 2-0. However, a late surge led them to equalize in the 90+2nd minute, courtesy of a crucial away goal from Patrik Schick.

This remarkable feat surpasses the previous record held by German powerhouse Bayern Munich, who managed a 32-game unbeaten run under the leadership of Hansi Flick during the 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 seasons.

Notably, Bayer Leverkusen currently stands as the sole unbeaten team among the top five leagues, with their last defeat dating back to the final matchday of the Bundesliga last season against VFL Bochum. Since then, they have amassed an impressive streak of 34 unbeaten matches.

Leading the Bundesliga with 64 points, boasting a 10-point advantage over Bayern Munich, Bayer Leverkusen is also showcasing their dominance in the DFB Pokal semifinals and remains a strong contender in the UEFA Europa League Round of 16.
