Since May 27, 2023, Bayer Leverkusen had remained unbeaten in the Bundesliga. However, every streak eventually ends, and Xabi Alonso finally met an opponent he couldn’t overcome. RB Leipzig became the first team in 35 matches to defeat the “pharmacists” in the German league, with significant contributions from two Slovenian players. The Red Bulls secured a 3-2 away victory, with Kevin Kampl scoring the first goal for his team, and Benjamin Šeško providing the assist for the second.
The most remarkable aspect of this match was that Bayer was already leading 2-0! No one could have imagined that RB Leipzig would come back to win, but football is full of surprises, and this match was no exception. Kevin Kampl scored in the seventh minute of added time in the first half, and Benjamin Šeško assisted in the 57th minute, when Lois Openda equalized the score. Openda then decided the winner in the 80th minute with his second goal of the match.
Both Kevin Kampl and Benjamin Šeško started in the first lineup for the visitors from Leipzig. The midfielder was substituted in the 89th minute, while Benjamin Šeško left the pitch in the 67th minute. The hero for the visitors was also the experienced goalkeeper Peter Gulacsi, who saved as many as 8 shots from the home team!
