They did it again. For a long time in the quarter-final first leg against West Ham United one could have had the impression that Leverkusen would not find the goal this time. Then they scored two again shortly before the end. Jonas Hofmann and Victor Boniface scored from corners in the 83rd and 91st minutes, the 2-0 is a good basis for the second leg.

The triple has become a bit more likely for Vizekusen. The club will become German champions on Sunday or sometime in the next few weeks. That is practically certain. Xabi Alonso took over Leverkusen in 17th place and is now dominating the Bundesliga. How did he do it, why is his team unbeaten 42 times in a row, what kind of football do they play?
