Imagine if Bayer had won the whole season and ended it with two defeats in the finals. It would be a very strange feeling
But if Kaiserslautern had won, that would also have been a miracle - after all, they are only the 13th team in the second Bundesliga. This team also surprised everyone and I hope to continue to progress. Overall, I am very pleased that Bayer won and did the golden double (without a single defeat in Germany during the season).
Kaiserslautern were definitely living the dream this season, they scale pass through some of the Bundesliga clubs and winning the cup would have been an icing on the cake for them and one of the stories of the season. But a win will have seem to shatter all what Xabi Alonso had worked for throughout the season. Personally I feel like they seems just too relax in the too finals and were over themselves, this was probably because of the league triumph celebrations which Is why it is better not to do too much of the celebration after winning a title and the entire season isn’t just over.
For Leverkusen, the defeat in the Europa final against Atalanta was indeed sad, and was a very bitter defeat because they were defeated at the wrong time. but winning 2 domestic cups with 0 defeats in the bundesliga is still an extraordinary statistic and performance. A record that will stand for a long time. Well done and congratulations to Bayer Leverkusen, Xabi Alonso and his staff.
