Bayern Munich tried to hold on to their hopes of staying on top of the Bundesliga with a 2-0 win over Cologne. However, this result only delayed Leverkusen's championship celebration by one day. In the match on the evening of April 14, coach Xabi Alonso and his team completed the task of winning 3 points to officially become champions.
At home, Bayer Leverkusen defeated Werder Bremen 5-0. Victor Boniface opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the 25th minute. Granit Xhaka's long-range strike in the 60th minute and Florian Wirtz's hat-trick (68', 84' and 89') completed the resounding victory for Bayer Leverkusen.
The 5-0 win helped the Bay Arena team become the champion of the Bundesliga season 2023/24, thereby ending Bayern Munich's 11-year dominance in the German national championship. After round 29, Leverkusen has 79 points, 16 points more than Bayern, while the season has only 5 rounds left. This is also the first Bundesliga title after 31 years of waiting for the Bay Arena team.
Leverkusen won the Bundesliga after finishing second five times in 1997, 1999, 2000, 2002 and 2011.
Coach Alonso and his team made a strong impression when they became the new German champions with 5 rounds early, along with an unbeaten record since the beginning of the season. Not only did they win the Bundesliga for the first time, Leverkusen also made history by becoming the team with the longest unbeaten streak (43 matches), equaling the record set by Juventus under Antonio Conte in the 2011/12 season.
Coach Alonso has transformed Leverkusen from a mid-level club into one of the most beautiful and effective teams in Europe. In the Bundesliga, Leverkusen has the second best attack in the league (scoring 70 goals) and the most solid defense (conceding 19 times).
After winning the national championship, the Bay Arena team still has the opportunity to create a historic treble. In the Europa League, Alonso's team has one foot in the semi-finals, after a 2-0 victory over West Ham in the first leg of the quarter-finals. In the National Cup, Leverkusen has also reached the final. Their opponent is only Kaiserslautern.
