Well I could say you are the only one on this taught because Bayern Leverkusen were more than enough prepared statistically to win that game looking at all the wonderful display of team work and team they have shown through out their 2023/24 season campaign but as faith may have it their unbeaten run had to be put to a stop at the most crucial time they even needed the win more which was so bad to see Because I for one really expected and even played that game with some cash in favor Leverkusen but after many wins with them they finally disappointed me and lost the game to Atlanta who I could say have been very good themselves but the gap and form difference between the two teams was just too obvious but football and it's wonders strikes again.

Xabi Alonso plan was winning the treble but he fall out along the line. It was one of the tremendous season fro Leverkusen, having to lose just a game in the whole of 2023/2024 season and it was against the Atalanta in the Europa League. Atalanta was not in a rush, they calmly played Bayer Leverkusen and absorbed all pressure that was flowing in. Bayern Leverkusen will play the UEFA Champions League next season, I'm definitely sure they will manage to reach the very top.

Xavi Alonso didn't take the finals as a final. He saw it as a normal match that he could win in 90+ plus. Will I say that he lack the ability to play finals. Let me see how he feels with his order final. I discovered that even after Atlanta scored Bayern Leverkusen 2 goals, all the fans, Coach and players were very confident that they will come back and win the matche. But the reality stroke when Lookman scored the 3rd goal.

I was not just happy when they were not able to complete what they started. This would have been a big history made for them but they approached the finals in a weak manner. I know that finals is always won by motivation and determination and not by the quality of players or quality of play. Lookman took the bulls by the horns and delivered an astonishing 3 goals to deliver the trophy to his club.

I suppose you are right on that, one can even call it as an over confidence on the team and their fans. You know when you have become good with something that always favours you, you then take it as part of you and feel everything is actually going to fall into place which obviously is not so because life and football itself can be funny, I could say what happened to Bayern Leverkusen was a typical example of how life actually plays or hits someone.

Sometimes we become so confident of our surrounding that we forget the little things are the ones that can actually cause a big damage to us which was typical Bayern Leverkusen case. But all the same atleast they still achieve something that haven't been done in the bundesLiga before and not even the almighty Bayern Munich has done it which is their unbeaten run in the bundesLiga.
