AS Roma 0-2 Bayer Leverkusen: Xabi Alonso's Side Have One Foot In The UEFA Europa League Final
This win means that Xabi Alonso's side is still unbeaten and has extended their undisputed winning streak to 47 matches.
Bayer Leverkusen is having a magical season so far, and they extended their unbeaten record by beating AS Roma at the Stadio Olimpico. Xabi Alonso's men went away from home and won 2-0, which almost booked their place in the final of the UEFA Europa League 2024. Leverkusen got their goals from Florian Wirtz and Robert Andrich, as they themselves are having quite extraordinary seasons on an individual level as well.
Bayer Leverkusen had to fight hard for the win, as they have a very poor record in Italy. Their 2-0 win against AS Roma marks only their second win in the country. Bayer Leverkusen broke the deadlock in the 18th minute after a mistake at the back of Roma's defense. After a misplaced backpass, Leverkusen's full-back Alex Grimaldo latched onto it before setting up the young sensation Florian Wirtz for his 18th goal of the season.
