Josip Stanisic scored a last-minute equalizer for Bayer Leverkusen, resulting in a 1-1 draw against Borussia Dortmund and preserving Leverkusen’s unbeaten streak. Leverkusen secured their first German title last Sunday with five games remaining in the season and now aims to complete a perfect, undefeated campaign in the Bundesliga.
Niclas Fullkrug had given Dortmund the lead in the 81st minute, but Stanisic’s header from a Florian Wirtz corner tied the game in the seventh minute of stoppage time, extending Leverkusen’s unbeaten streak across all competitions to 45 games.
Leverkusen’s coach, Xabi Alonso, highlighted the importance of the emotional goal and the team’s strong connection with the fans. “We don’t want to lose. The goal was emotional, and celebrating with the fans was incredible,” he told DAZN. Leverkusen will now focus on preparing for their next match against Stuttgart on Saturday, which promises to be an exciting game.
