Xabi Alonso Equals Bundesliga Record Despite Leverkusen's Draw at Wolfsburg

Posted : 08 February 2025

Xabi Alonso matched the Bundesliga's all-time record for the longest unbeaten away run on Saturday, despite Bayer Leverkusen's goalless draw at VfL Wolfsburg. The result leaves Leverkusen eight points behind leaders Bayern Munich, who won 3-0 against Werder Bremen on Friday.

 

Alonso’s side had a tough outing, with attacking midfielder Florian Wirtz starting on the bench as part of a heavily rotated squad following their extra-time win over second-tier Cologne in the German Cup quarterfinals.

 

Leverkusen’s attacking struggles were evident, as Wolfsburg registered more shots on target and came close to taking the lead when Kilian Fischer’s powerful drive hit the woodwork in the 74th minute.

 

Despite a late surge from Leverkusen, including a golden opportunity in stoppage time by Wirtz, they were unable to break the deadlock. The draw, however, saw Alonso match Udo Lattek’s record of 27 consecutive away games without defeat in the Bundesliga.

 

With the draw, Leverkusen remain second in the Bundesliga standings with 46 points, while Bayern Munich continue to lead with 54 points. Alonso's unbeaten away record adds to his growing reputation as a manager, though his team will need to regain their attacking rhythm to close the gap on Bayern in the title race.
