🏆 NEW CHAMPIONS! 🏆 Bayer Leverkusen vs. Werder Bremen | Bundesliga Highlights | ESPN FC

it has been a day of nerve shredding

tension and stomach churning excitement

in this community of 165,000 on the VOA

the dun and the

Ry when for years you've been dismissed

as the nearly team with cruel nicknames

like V Ken Runners up Ken if you like

and never Ken seeing is believing and

until they see it until they live it

fire lusen fans are not going to

Exhale but the hope is Sunday the 14th

of April will go down in the annals of

history as the night of the big Meister

fire a party to celebrate the greatest

achievement in the history of Bayern

nfia

lusen in the 45th Bundesliga season

Leverkusen have the power to become the

13th different team to win the title a

victory against Vera Brean and the issue

is settled with five match days to spare

scenario yesterday if you're wondering

what a Zula Meister is well Champions

crown on the sofa on the

couch there was the chance that that

could have happened but the results went

a different way T cross the face of goal

and Teta having to make such an

important save there to deny Pier Inc

capier who was storming in

[Applause]

oh this is wonderful ball to that far

post I think uh Mitchell viser maybe

fell asleep just a little bit look at

that ball across he knew exactly what he

was doing unbelievable Say by and I tell

you what advisor just enough leusen Club

captain and he is enjoying a magnificent

season between the posts got off to a

very Rocky start last time did improve

in the H corer the second half

hman second bite at this one for the ver

y hofman set under pressure under

illegal pressure from Victor Bonny face

oh he really wanted to squeeze that in

but uh good job there by tet as you can

see it here look at that delivery for as

Hoffman offside position anyway in this

situation here but just goes to show

they trust themselves uh willing to

thread the needle if need be now looking

back at it probably not the best

decision there because uh I think if

you're goalkeeper you're always going to

be in a position to claim that

very tight compact Stadium the by Arena

most of the viewing positions are

excellent

here nice compact game as well in that

center of the pitch they've done their

homework hman after Shaka had tried to

control things and the deflection there

as Shaka took aim tried to catch Raymond

off balance well we all know he's very

much capable of striking the ball from

that distance as you can can see it here

pressure coming in and Christian gross

that risk is worth uh taking Bonny face

initially had his back to goal

T and well they're asking the question

the lusen

players referee unmoved Haram

osmer hofman was trying to make that

timely run through the center that ball

was just played little bit behind him as

you can see it here is there a foul I

think it's maltini there we're going to

get a great look here as he gets in

front of it well there's a lot of

contact he does get part of the ball as

well as I've said the ball is behind was

going to be difficult I suppose tell you

what that's enough just the fact that he

gets in front of him there and he's

looking at that ball almost in front of

him to just T that away with his right

foot there is a lot of contact there I

wouldn't be absolutely

shocked question is the ball have gone

maybe just maybe already been gone when

that final contact from maltini came in

would have been on the softer side well

everyone has to wait for one thing hman

having to be looked

at everything being checked of course

and the ker Kella just a few kilometers

away Pascal MAA on duty there in Cur

DS I'm not surprised it's a tough one

tough one to read and uh you know Martin

looks a little bit guilty just by the

fact as I've mentioned that he allowed

uh Hoffman uh to get in front of him and

uh on that play so it's just a question

who touched the ball right it almost

looked it was was 50/50 at the same time

he's going to have a look yeah surprised

he's trotting over to the review area

after hearing what Pascal M and Tobias

frit in the ker Kella had to say about

it and we'll have a chance to review a

few new angles

maybe mantini there yanush yeah I mean

it's just so hard because you can always

explain that look the ball's gone I mean

he was going to take the touch but it's

almost at the same time the game you

know the game's not finished here's that

contact and now for the Vex penalty to

Baya

lusen an opportunity for the VV on this

special day to forge ahead complaints

from the brayman

players maltini adjudged to have been

the miscreate yeah he you know didn't

touch the ball which that look gave us

uh it gave us that I suppose the contact

we saw the end of it it probably started

a little bit before that as well but uh

I just think guilty party for for just

getting Hoffman to get in front of him

Lan VZ has been taking them recently but

not in the initial 11 so it will be left

to Victor Bonny face

10 goals he has scored in his short

Bundesliga career so far and Bon face

leveren are on their

[Applause]

way the fans here at the Bay Arena are

reeving in

[Music]

IT stand to become the 13 different

winners of the Bundesliga hman here and

T and set had trouble and body face and

what a scramble what a stramash a inside

the penalty

area who want look at the reaction of

yonat he felt that he got there I me he

was the first one at

that and was just a hint of a push

there maybe straying anyway yonas

hofman W Kim blame tet look at that

reaction right here as he rises above

all on a bounce like this obviously that

follow up by bunny face everybody

throwing their bodies in front of the

goal so uh very very fortunate for f

brayman there but once again Set uh

coming huge on the initial header Header

by maltini Andre is there to take charge

of it great developer is playing third

division football into his

20s he feels that he's been the better

for that

experience Yas hman and all of a sudden

it up up and off the frame of the goal

adly for

[Music]

lusen well that certainly was another

scare for brayman am

Le and again as you see that ball look

at that first touch bring us down

perfectly and Martin coming in this

wasn't an easy strike right normally

you'd say to yourself maybe you look to

the far post that wasn't there

Fong switch of play up towards Bonny

face still with Victor Bonny face and

that was hit with authority granny

Checker

wow this is happening for

lusen the title

beckons the very first me

Char they can almost touch it now

and so fitting of the

occasion that shot from granny

Shaka Leverkusen two to the good surely

they're not going to be denied it's

quite right what you said it's fitting

uh the captain on the pitch really and

look at that distance really I mean you

got to look at the goalkeeper this is

going to be a great look probably

unexpected because we're talking about

what was that 27 28 maybe 30 yards away

from goal and certainly plac there was

plenty of power but you could see how he

was trying to bend around it and and

again I you know I want to say that

everybody prer to brayman took that for

granted not thinking that he's going to

have the audacity to take that but we

saw it in the first half and we've seen

it in the past that uh Dan Chaka is

fully capable of doing just

that only his second Bundesliga goal

since returning to the league he Ned

against

m in

capier

Shaka really savored that magical moment

earlier and here's floran field oh my

goodness me

oh that is a statement for you

[Applause]

Bo it was

traveling Leen are traveling to the

Meister

Charlotte no doubt about it and what a

hit from flan yeah spectacular goal from

a spectacular player as I've mentioned

it's different the moment he stepped on

the pitch in the second half in a

different role as I've said he do comes

inside a lot more of course than than

his predecessor did in the first half

but look at that strike one thing in

mind Patrick shik almost gets in the way

of of that and perhaps gets in the way

of div vision of T but uh my goodness

what a statement uh at this particular

time look at good chob

alono here Schmid with Andre trying to

stay with him every step of the

way tried to play a couple of telling

balls but and there was Hansen Oru in

and now all of a sudden it opens up for

floran vot is he going to score again

yes

viz a double from

him well now some of the fans are

inclined to run on others holding

themselves back

pandemonium here in

lusen scenes never witnessed

before here at the B

Arena the big

party can wait a few more minutes but

it's four for

lusen and they are going to be crowned

champions of Germany tonight what an

exclamation uh mark on this one

hopefully obviously uh the supporters

can wait just a little bit longer for

this one then again 2002 here's Visa

Clayman who haven't had an awful lot to

show for their

efforts in the second half

galdo takes it forward and is it going

to be another one from

VI

[Music]

Bo it does not get any

sweeter a hatrick from fogy Ence to C it

all

off and good luck keeping them off the

pitch on the back of that going to

finish that now I mean good luck getting

back to that but I think if you referee

if you can you blow the whistle 9th

minute right now as you said here I mean

look at that goal special player we've

talked about in Galo I talked about that

araban here it is there he goes look at

that ball outside foot look at the way

he rites that tackle he uses his body

not the strong as a play well at least

doesn't look that way but of course

course he shows it here and a hattick

for him and now we can say it forget

never Ken forget V Ken runers up Ken say

hello to Meister

[Applause]

Ken and that is going to be that in

terms of the story of this

game the final whistle is

sounded now they can exhale now they can

celebrate liberen is d footb ma

[Applause]

[Music]
