Bayer Leverkusen Vs Hoffenheim, Bundesliga 2023/24 Matchday 27: Match Report
Bayer Leverkusen hosted Hoffenheim for their Bundesliga 2023/24 Matchday 27 fixture, as the league leaders were looking to extend their unbeaten run across all competitions. The fixture at BayArena started on an electric note as Bayer Leverkusen continued being agresive from the first minute itself.
However, the home fans were stunned as a brilliant piece of skill from Maximilian Beier and Wout Weghorst involved a quick one-two and a neat finish from the former through the legs of Lukas Hradecky into the near post gave the visitors a huge advantage in the 33rd minute.
It looked like game over for Xabi Alonso's men but Bayer showed their true class and displayed their never-say-die spirit as late goals from Robert Andrich and club-hero Patrik Schick in the 88th and 91st minute respectively helped the league-leaders snatch all three points and Bayer Leverkusen's unbeaten run this season remained alive.
