Bayer Leverkusen's Stellar Run Shatters All Records
Bayer Leverkusen reached 49 matches unbeaten after drawing with Roma in stoppage time in a game they were losing 0-2. Invincibles.
At the 82nd minute, Bayer Leverkusen was trailing 0-2. It seemed their unbeaten streak would stop at 48 games, but in the final moments, where they thrive, the German team managed to claw back a draw against Roma, extending their incredible and historic streak to 49 games.
The sense is that they can't lose. They now have four games left in the season: two in the Bundesliga, the Europa League final on May 22 against Atalanta, and the German Cup final against Kaiserslautern on May 25.
The challenge: complete an entire season unbeaten to round out an unforgettable campaign where they are aiming for a historic treble. They've already secured the Bundesliga and want more. They want it all.
Record-breaking numbers
Bayer Leverkusen's unbeaten streak of 49 games is not just any streak. No other team in history has achieved it. With their draw against Roma, they surpassed the record set by Benfica during the Eusebio era between 1963 and 1965. Invincible.
