Are we not surprised? Seriously I am because if this was Ten Hang's team, the would have lost totally to Frankfurt. They didn't just win but they won convincingly and also played well in the process. Bayern Leverkusen got one red card just when they were winning 2 - 1 and the game went on to 90+ minutes and they got another red card to make it two red cards. Guess what, they still scored again to bring the score line to 3 - 1

Yeah, I wouldn't think of another outcome if Ten Hag was in charge. The poor coach made Bundesliga history with the fastest removal of a coach after only two rounds and like 3 games including a victory, draw and a defeat.
I don't know if this will blow up his career for good or not because this opportunity to help Bayer Leverkusen get in its feet was completely destroyed and that was very shameful for him.
Bayer Leverkusen victory in this round was good and the upcoming games will tell more about the team. Eric Ten Hag problem is he fails to understand this generation of players and cannot control them.

Fastest removal, that got me laughing. I can't even think of any top league that the manger was sacked after just 2 matches in recent years except just for him alone. It's really a record, maybe Bayern Leverkusen management saw something or they were pressured to remove him immediately. Just imagine he was still in charge of the team, I'm very sure that the 3 points would have gone to Frankfurt's way.

In my opinion, such a decision does feel extreme, especially at a big club that usually allows more time for evaluation. However, sometimes the management has considerations that aren’t visible to the public, whether it’s the locker room situation, a vision of play that doesn’t align, or external pressure. Looking at the match itself, it’s hard to imagine the situation being significantly different, but football is always full of unpredictable surprises
