I think also Leverkusen felt too confident and that is why they lost Europa League final. They had great season but they needed to remember that no team is perfect. Winning both Europa League and DFB Pokal would have been amazing but losing the Europa League final shows that anything can happen. Leverkusen did something great by beating team that had won 11 times in a row. One loss shouldn't hide how well they have done. I think they will try harder and maybe win the DFB Pokal which would still make this a great season.
Contrarily I felt the pressure was what caused Leverkusen not been able to win the Europa finals and not even their confidence which some may think they had, they were actually really confident in the fact that they were going to win the trophy because they have won even teams that appears even tough than  Atalanta both in their domestic league and the Europa but then the finals came with so much pressure such that they weren't just focused on winning alone but also focused on maintaining a record.

At the beginning of the final game , just before Atlanta got their first goal, it could be observed that Leverkusen were very much careful with the game and they were trying as much as possible to making sure they are able to maintain a defensive yet opportunistic attacking strategy but it turned out that Atalanta realized it Early enough and seized the opportunity they had to get a goal then the second after which they now adopted the Leverkusen strategy which Leverkusen dropped in the second half and started to play for a goal but it felt like it was late already.

I still believe Leverkusen is a good team and can be able to achieve a whole lot by next season but they may not be able to maintain the record they did had this season as it was such a huge one that no one expected of them and so it gave them the privilege to get through to setting the record but now a few will be having their mi D's on the possible performance if Leverkusen which will lead to them wanting to stop Leverkusen from repeating such records again.
