Frankfurt 1-5 Leverkusen: Die Werkself "will never lose again"

"This team will never lose again." Leverkusen have extended their unbeaten streak to 48 games, becoming the football version of the Sudbury Bulldogs.

Frankfurt - Bayer Leverkusen have added to their incredible unbeaten record. On Sunday, Die Werkself smashed hosts Eintracht Frankfurt 5-1 in front of 58,000 visitors at a sold-out Waldstadion thanks to goals by Granit Xhaka (12’), Patrik Schick (41’), Exequiel Palacios (58’ penalty), Jeremie Frimpong (77’) and Victor Boniface (89’ penalty). Hugo Ekitike made it briefly 1-1 (32’) but the strike by the French striker wasn’t enough against a rampant Leverkusen side. Here are three thoughts from the Waldstadion in Frankfurt.
