Leverkusen have thrown away a great opportunity to improve their position in the standings, This result is very surprising because the opponent faced was a promoted club. On paper, Leverkusen have everything to beat Holstein Kiel, this match was played at BayArena which is their proud stadium, then they also led 2-0, but Holstein managed to balance the strength of the home team Ruah by replying 2 goals which made the match end 2-2. Leverkusen prowess last season is starting to fade, its shortcomings are starting to be seen especially in the defensive area which is becoming easier for opposing teams to break down.
It looks like we will see a new champion in the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich are the favorites based on their current form.
Leverkusen should be happy because the second goal was a fluke, if the goalkeeper didn't make a mistake, Leverkusen will lose 1-2 in their home. This is a bad result, but you can't judge the whole Leverkusen's performance only from this match because other big teams also suffered draw and lose against weak teams.
Bayern Munich do become a favorite in this season because they were disappointed with the result in the last season.
I am not at all happy with Leverkusen's performance in this match. Leverkusen dominated the match, attacking a lot, but still I would say Leverkusen didn't play well. The Leverkusen team took a 2-0 lead in just 8 minutes. Despite taking a 2-goal lead so quickly, Leverkusen failed to win the match. This is definitely Leverkusen's failure. Because Holstein Kiel was not a strong opponent. Leverkusen conceded two goals despite taking a 2-0 lead against such an opponent. However, it will not be possible for Leverkusen to win the title this season. Compared to Munich, Leverkusen is quite weak this season.
