Xabi Alonso led Bayer Leverkusen to a historic moment as they claimed their first league title in the Bundesliga. The team put on a stunning performance, dominating Werder Bremen with a 5-0 victory at BayArena. This victory came with five games to spare, cementing their position as champions of the league.
For the past 11 years, Bayern Munich had been the reigning champions, but they were unable to stop Leverkusen's unstoppable momentum. Despite Bayern's win over Cologne on Saturday, it only delayed the celebrations for Alonso's team. The final victory against Bremen sealed the deal and the team was crowned champions.
This incredible achievement is even more impressive considering where Leverkusen was less than 18 months ago. At the time, they were in the relegation zone. But under Alonso's guidance, they have risen to the top and are now contenders for a treble, with the German Cup and Europa League still within their reach.
Alonso expressed his joy and pride in the team's success, stating that it was a special moment for the club. He also acknowledged the hard work and dedication of everyone involved, from the players to the staff and the fans. The team's unbeaten record in all competitions this season is a testament to their determination and teamwork.
After the final whistle, fans stormed the pitch in celebration of their team's victory. Alonso described it as a huge honor for the club and a result of years of hard work and dedication. He also emphasized the significance of winning their first title, stating that it will always hold a special place in the club's history.
One of the key players in Leverkusen's success this season is Granit Xhaka, who joined the team from Arsenal last season. He described winning the Bundesliga in his first season back in Germany as unbelievable. He also praised the team's performance and credited their hard work for the victory.
The team's focus now turns to the Europa League quarter-final against West Ham. With a 2-0 advantage from the first leg, Leverkusen is determined to continue their winning streak and bring home another trophy. This season has been a special one for the club, and they are determined to keep pushing for more success.
