Bundesliga: Bayer Leverkusen beat VfL Bochum and extended their unbeaten streak to 50 games

The winners’ goals were scored on Sunday by Czech Patrik Schick, Nigerian Victor Boniface, Moroccan Amine Adli, Croatian Josip Stanisic and Spaniard Alex Grimaldo.

Three games from the impossible

The pharmacists open the Bundesliga table with 87 points and a record of 27 wins and six draws. Their last defeat was on May 27 last year against… VfL Bochum.

Earlier, in the last round of the top league, the players of Spanish coach Xabi Alonso will face Robert Gumny’s FC Augsburg in front of their home audience. They can then simply finish the already historic Bundesliga record with a smile on their faces.

Lewandowski can (rather) sleep peacefully

In second place is Bayern Munich, which won at home against VfL Wolfsburg 2-0 on Sunday and has 72 points. The goals for the outgoing German champions were scored by Croatian Lovro Zvonarek (4th), who was in the starting line-up of the Bavarian team for the first time in his career, and Leon Goretzka (13th). Jakub Kamiński played for the visiting team from the beginning of the second half.

However, the Munich team did not have the injured Harry Kane, who probably missed the chance to equal Robert Lewandowski’s record of 41 goals in one Bundesliga season. The Englishman has 36 goals.

Bayern is not yet sure of the runner-up title because it is only two points ahead of VfB Stuttgart. On Saturday, the Bavarians will play away against Hoffenheim, and the team from the capital of Baden-Württemberg will host Borussia Moenchengladbach.
