Bayer Leverkusen Extends Unbeaten Run to 47 After Europa League Victory

Unstoppable Force

Bayer Leverkusen's remarkable unbeaten streak continues after a dominant performance against AS Roma in the first leg of the Europa League semi-final. The German champions secured a 2-0 victory in the imposing Stadio Olimpico, extending their unbeaten run across all competitions to an astonishing 47 matches.

Clinical Edge

Leverkusen's efficiency in front of goal was on full display in Rome. Despite having only 12 attempts on goal compared to Roma's seven, the German side converted their chances with precision. Florian Wirtz opened the scoring in the 39th minute, while Robert Andrich sealed the victory with a second goal in the 59th minute.

Roma, on the other hand, struggled to create clear-cut chances despite enjoying the majority of possession. The Italian side completed more passes than Leverkusen but failed to find the cutting edge needed to trouble the German defense.

Conclusion

Bayer Leverkusen's relentless form shows no signs of slowing down. Their ability to grind out victories even in hostile environments is a testament to their quality and determination. As the second leg approaches, Roma faces an uphill task to overturn the deficit against an in-form Leverkusen side that seems unstoppable at the moment.
