Did you miss it? This… goddamn Leverkusen which last season brought everything tuba and had made a habit of scoring goals in the final, he returned with “good evening” to the new season! And since he had a player less than 37′ against Stuttgart in the Super Cup, equalized at 2-2 in regular time in the 87th minute and prevailed 4-3 in the process from the penalty spot!
But let’s start from the beginning…
His team Xabi Alonso as if it didn’t… a day passed, saw Boniface find the net in the 11th minute, heading in at the far post after a double effort to look threatening at the same stage from that point.
Stuttgart reacted with great speed and in the 15th minute Milo found himself in an advantageous position in the “heart” of Hratetski’s area for the left side and 1-1.
The “aspirins” in the 37th minute saw Martin Terrier fall completely clumsily at the feet of Demirovic and as a result he saw the red card, so Sebastian Hennes’ team got the psychological boost to generate more tension looking for the upset. And they achieved their goal! In the 63rd minute, Krajic made the turn from the left and Denis Udav made it 2-1 with a projection.

And then? What happened then? No, they didn’t… dim the lights, but Leverkusen remembered their… magic, from last season. And he “knocked” in the last minutes. And Patrick Schick, who had completed other turnovers, went into the area, took Grimaldo’s assist and, with a wonderful placement, tied the game at 2-2.

Fribong in stoppage time missed a terrific chance that made even Xabi Alonso kneel down in disbelief, however, in the penalty shootout Leverkusen were more skilled and luckier and prevailed 4-3 to get the Super Cup.
