Leverkusen’s chance at Bundesliga glory

Bayer Leverkusen’s head coach, Xabi Alonso, expressed optimism ahead of their crucial Bundesliga match against Werder Bremen, where victory could secure them the league title. Alonso emphasized the importance of focus and quality performance to clinch the championship. He stressed the need for preparation and respect for their opponents, highlighting the team’s determination to maintain consistency and play well.

Alonso acknowledged the significance of the opportunity to celebrate a potential championship victory, but also addressed concerns regarding a possible pitch invasion. While recognizing the fans’ desire to revel in the moment, he emphasized the importance of maintaining the pitch for future games. He urged the team to concentrate on the task at hand and assured confidence in their ability to secure the win.

As Leverkusen stands poised for potential glory, Alonso addressed two possible scenarios. Firstly, the prospect of postponing the title confirmation to the following weekend if Sunday’s match doesn’t yield a victory. Secondly, the unlikely chance of clinching the championship on Saturday if other results fall in their favor. Despite the excitement surrounding the latter scenario, Alonso expressed a preference for celebrating on the pitch rather than from the sidelines.
