Once again, Leverkusen proved that they are an unbeatable team this season and the 0-2 win away from home against Darmstadt meant that Leverkusen continued to maintain the point difference from Bayern Munich. Xabi Alonso seemed to never run out of ideas to win and therefore Leverkusen won convincingly. The absence of Victor Boniface did not make it difficult for them to adapt to the new rotation and Iglesias, who only arrived this winter as a second-string striker, played quite well even though he had not scored a goal in his debut match.
Leverkusen's two winning goals were scored by Tella and even though he replaced Frimpong on the right wing, the results were very satisfying. This proves that Leverkusen's depth does not only depend on a few key players and that when needed to score a goal, players in any position can do it. Next week will be a tense match and this will be one of the determinants to increase the chances of who will become Bundesliga champions this season and yes, I mean the match between Leverkusen vs Bayern Munich.

Probably Xabi is not very happy that all the African Cup favorites were knocked out, but it was Nigeria that remained and now the likelihood that Boniface will stay in this tournament until the very end is 100%
Bayer continues to remain invincible and it seems that in the next round, if Bayern cannot win away, the situation will turn around and Bayer will become the favorite in the race (at the moment it is Bayern). Probably absolutely everyone who is interested in European football will watch this game, just like everyone watched the Clasico before.
Boniface is out with injury. He's not in the Nigerian team either. He is not playing African Cup.
Leverkusen still is a stronger team as a whole and the next saturday game between Leverkuse and Munich would decide many things.
As of the match between Leipzig and union Berlin, Leipzig has nearly won it early. In 75th over Leipzig is leading with two goals against null of Union Berlin and the Berlin team is already reduced to 10 players due to red card.
