“day off with beer”… and back to work, thinking about the three
It was a long night in Leverkusen. 20,000 people left on the “green” in two hours!!! the end of the match and “forced” the players and staff to return to the “ring”, like bullfighters in the days of the “big gate”. The box became a kind of “city hall balcony” from which all the “heroes” were greeted one after another.
And in Leverkusen the sound sounded… Long live Spain!
Beer was flowing along the corridors of the BayArena – just see the “bath” that Xabi Alonso took at the press conference. Waiting 120 years to win the first Bundesliga in its history was worth it.
Celebrate with German beer. You should enjoy the moment. It happens very quickly
So much so that even Xabi himself let his guard down: “Celebrate with German beer. You should enjoy the moment. It happens very quickly.” “It’s not all bad in Germany, we need to learn,” Borja Iglesias admitted to MARCA with a laugh.
Chasing three
“Monday, day off,” Alonso exclaimed. Today the squad will rest. “Rua” and official visits – mayor Uwe Richrath attended the party “on site” in the dressing room – have been postponed until the end of the season. They are scheduled after the Cup final: On May 25, Bayer Leverkusen will face second division Kaiserslautern.

The “truce” will not last long. Tomorrow, Tuesday, back to the “pit”. Xabi doesn’t want to be distracted. With the match against West Ham (Thursday) just around the corner, Company Eleven will look to build on their 2-0 win in the first leg. reach the semi-finals of the Europa League for the second year in a row.
And the possibility of creating a trio is becoming more and more real. At the motivational level there is another important aspect. It’s not a title, but Leverkusen have set a goal of finishing the season undefeated: they have played 43 games so far (38 wins and five draws) and the meter keeps going up.
