Leverkusen have won the German Super Cup and it was hell of a work honestly.
Because they got a red card in the first half but this still didn't stop them. Even though Stuttgart got ahead, they came back and won by penalties. Xabi Alonso is continuing on his magical run. Starting the season with trophy must be feeling superb for the whole team and the fans.
It is good to see that the same spirit exists among the players. Maybe another unbeaten run is about to start...
Congratulations to Alonso for his first trophy this season, to be honest I expected them to win in regulation time, but it was the red card in the first half that changed this game. I didn't watch the match, but I see that there were a lot of fouls and a lot of yellow cards, which means that the match was important for the teams. And Stuttgart needed just a few minutes to win this match, and the penalty shootout is a game of luck, and Bayer was luckier here. In any case, this is a good start for Bayer.
