Bayer Leverkusen continued its momentum of the past weeks and started the game strongly. Bayern Munich struggled with the high pressure from the home team, which brought attacking football to the mat against the record champion.
At fifteen minutes, Peter Bosz’s team was rewarded for the good game. On a rehearsed corner kick, Schick hit the 1-0 with a lovely volley.
After half an hour, Schick did not fail face to face with Neuer, but his second goal of the evening was disallowed for offside. A downer for Leverkusen, because just before half-time it gave up the lead after a blunder in the back. FIFA player of the year to Lewandowski.
After a furious start by Bayern in the second half, the game seemed to be heading for a draw. Robert Lewandowski decided otherwise. In the final minute, he shot the visitors to victory with a deviated shot.
Bayern Munich thus takes over the leadership position from Bayer Leverkusen. The current champion is 2 points ahead of pursuers Leverkusen and Leipzig.
