It is also the first loss for Leverkusen in the Bundesliga since May 2023.



It is still an insane record to maintain of course. More than a whole year.  Shocked  The magical run has come to an end but of course this doesn't point to anything such as the start of a bad form. I still see that dedication in the players' eyes. They never give up and want this back-to-back title. Losing some more points than last season would also help us watch a more competitive season too. I want Bayern Munich and Dortmund in it like I said before.
I could only imagine what xabi will be feeling like having to experience his second defeat as a Coach at Bayer Leverkusen, something he has experienced only once since he resumed as a coach at Leverkusen and that was at the end of the games in last season,  a final which was almost quite understandable, as for the yesterday's defeat, it was quite unfortunate because Leverkusen took the lead much earlier but couldn't maintain it for the longest to get them still ahead as we would want them to be, nevertheless, this is literally going to serve as an interim for  xabi and he's going to understand the magnitude of this season and probably going to improve on getting his defense to to their form so as not to suffer similar situations again this season because if they do it's going to affect them a long way.
Xabi is a coach who can learn a lot from a defeat, but it wouldn't be right to expect the same performance as last year. They are the only team in Bundesliga history to become champions without defeat. This shows that there will definitely be defeats in the league, last year's extraordinary performance was an exception. They are one of the championship candidates in Bundesliga again. There will be a tighter competition with Bayern this year.

Leverkusen have only played two matches this season although the defeat really surprised many people because indeed many people did not expect Leverkusen to lose at home when facing Leipzig. And because this is Leverkusen's first defeat to Leipzig at home, I will not immediately doubt Leverkusen for this season because there are many matches that can still be considered as opportunities for Leverkusen to return to the top. I really have no doubts about Xabi Alonso's order even though it is true that when facing Leipzig, Xabi Alonso's team did not play very well.
It is still too early to doubt Leverkusen as a strong candidate for the Bundesliga title this year, this is only the second week there are still many matches to be played Leverkusen opportunities are still wide open and I still believe they remain a strong candidate this season. and from last night's defeat Leverkusen played very well as usual they played aggressively but Leipzig was able to come back from two goals down and gave a surprise in the second half, from what I saw Leverkusen had problems in defense in the two matches they have played they have conceded 5 goals, this is a strong warning for Xabi Alonso to improve the defense so that in the next match he can achieve satisfactory results,

The season we all await for is finally here and Bayern Leverkusen still has continued their unbeaten record last season on the German Bundesliga side, the question will now be, would they continue this journey until the end of the season? Like the way they went unbeaten last season, I doubt. However, nothing much has really changed as regards to their performance, and I haven't seen any sign of weakness to not win their next game.
Leverkusen's unbeaten record ended after rb leipzig really surprised us all with the victory they achieved in last night's match, trailing 2-1 leipzig came back in the second half and broke Leverkusen's dominance, but from what I saw Leverkusen played very well they were superior in all lines both in ball possession and opportunities, but this is football even though Leipzig only had a few opportunities but they maximized them well, my question is will Leverkusen's first defeat in the Bundesliga have an impact in the future? such as lowering the mentality of the players because as we know they lost at home

If from me it is not surprising at all considering that there will be a time when an undefeated team will start to have difficulty maintaining its record. Here Leverkusen must end it all since last season and I think they are also very satisfied with what they have achieved. But the problem is maybe this defeat should not have been obtained when the new season is running and this will make it a little difficult for them.

On the other hand, great appreciation for Leipzig's performance because this team can sometimes be a disaster for teams of the same level and this proves that they are able to win even in unfavorable situations. Playing as a guest team is certainly difficult, especially the opponent is a team that is undefeated and this will increase their enthusiasm to continue winning matches in a row.

I wasn't actually surprised with that result because I was expecting a draw match initially. Leipzig looks good this season more than Leverkusen despite the league is just starting. In their first match, they were on red card just like yesterday and they still won, again, it happens yesterday. What is surprising me is how Leverkusen allowed Leipzig to do come back on a two goals with red card from first half and then manage to score the third goal. It is good to kill off the game as early as possible and not depending on the last minute miracle as usual because it's not sustainable. Imagine having more than 25 shots and still lost the game! Leverkusen need to work on their finishing.
a draw?
I didn't even think that it would happen when Leverkusen was the opponent of Leipzig, but indeed what happened in that match certainly surprised all of us, Leipzig who in the last two seasons had difficulty beating Leverkusen but in yesterday match they managed to get 3 points and the most impressive thing is that Leipzig became the first Bundesliga team to break Leverkusen record of consecutive wins in the domestic league so far,  The last time Leverkusen lost was when they faced Bochum in the 2022/23 season, after the defeat they actually performed very impressive unbeaten until in the end Leipzig gave them their first defeat in 462 days as I read in some media today, Leverkusen actually  played quite well as usual and even in the first half they had a 2-0 lead over Leipzig but the comeback that was previously often done by Leverkusen is now Leipzig is doing and I think how painful it is  Grin.

I understand the frustration. Leverkusen losing in front of home Not really good. Lets not, however, draw hasty judgements here. Off days abound even among the top teams. Remember too that this is only one game. One game cannot define a season. Last season Leverkusen had an amazing run. They raise a great standard, and expectations are sky high. Any squad can find that kind of strain taxing. Still, lets not overlook these men; they are champions for a reason. They know how to win; they have tenacity; they have talent.

Though it might sting a little, this defeat might also be the thing they need. Remind them that their laurels are insufficient for relaxation. They must remain hungry, maintain concentrated, and keep pushing. People, the season lasts a long time. Enough time exists to reverse things. Let us hence not write them off right now. See how they answer. Lets see whether they can meet the demand.

A somewhat hard-fought victory over Wolfsburg in their Bundesliga opener could spell a difficult season for Bayern Munich under Vincent Kompany. A coach who was relegated from the Premier League with Burnley is now in charge of the mighty Bayern Munich. Therefore, I warn Kompany, just one loss, in any round, the criticism aimed at Kompany will be very harsh.
Talking about Bayern Munich at this time, I compare the team to a supercar consisting of 3 separate parts combined. Accordingly, the front part of the car belongs to the high-end segment, the middle part is also of equally good quality, but the rear part is rotten. New season, new expectations but the same old pain for Bayern Munich. A poor defense has left the team bogged down. For lonl-distance racing, this car can still reach the finish line. However, whether they will win the championship or not, no one dares to be optimistic. It is not clear whether Kompany will be a success or a failure this season, but at the very least, I need him to improve his defense immediately.
This is not a big deal really and at least Bayern Munich still got their first win of the season. Wolfsburg proved that they are not a weak team in general and the evidence of two goals against Bayern Munich will be the beginning of a stern warning for Vincent Kompany to fix his defense.

I think there is a time for us to talk about this further when a league has been running for half a season and for now Bayern Munich remains one of the favorites to win regardless of the results they get. Criticism will always be there, especially considering Vincent Kompany's status as a mediocre coach before, he will definitely always get scorn from many people. What is clear is that Bayern Munich must stay focused and let everyone chatter for now.

It's still absurd to me why people are obsessed with the past of Vincent Kompany, yes he managed Burnley, and yes Burnley went down too, but do you guys really think the Bayern management recruited him for no reason? Not looking at any of his qualities?

Kompany came a long way as a player, and his footballing philosophy is amazing. He is a vocal manager who has his priorities straight. Yes, the first game didn't have the most convincing scoreline, but it was due to the center backs having a bad game. Kim Min Jae made a horrible mistake. That should not have happened. And this is also not the first time Kim Min Jae is making mistakes.

There are still 2 days till the window closes, if Bayern goes for a late move for a cornerback, I won't be surprised. They sold De Ligt, there are shoes to fill, so this might go on. I think it would be a good idea for them to get a new cornerback, someone like Guehi who is on the market now.

Do you want to say we should not just talk about Kompany in Burnley and say he had a bad performance because his team didn't stay in the league and got relegated? Still, the fact about Kompany is he didn't give any better experience and all we know about Kompany is coaching a few teams while he didn't have good performance. He never coached a team with superstar players to know how he should react to these players.
In fact, Kompany can't good performance in Bayern Munich because he doesn't have enough experience yet.
They are not experienced enough for Bayern Munich, but it seemed like Bayern Munich didn't have many alternatives. For example, when they made an offer to their former coach Julien Nagelsmann, they were rejected. When they received rejections from a few more coaches like this, they started to look for alternatives. I think the most obvious of these alternatives is Kompany. They reached an agreement with him and he is currently managing the team. It's not going badly for now, what's important is that we are still at the very beginning of the league. They will also take part in the Champions League and it should not be forgotten that they are a team aiming for the championship in this tournament.

It looks like this new season it is going again to be dominated by Bayern Munchen looking at how the games have started for the first two weeks of the 2024-2025 Bundesliga. Of course not signing any new players is a massive mistake by Alonso which was done before by Ten Haag in Premier League and we all know how it ended for Ten Haag, most likely the same will end for Alonso, it ended by not being able to win or even not to be able to make a good appearance in the European competitions. For me what surprised me most was Borussia Dortmund not being able to score a single goal in the game of yesterday against Werde Bremen as I would surely expect more from the Champions League finalists of 2024.
In the match, Borussia Dortmund and Werder Bremen showed us a barren match. It was a boring match with not many chances. Considering that Borussia Dortmund reached the final of the Champions League last year, I expected them to win the match and create chances. Also, things are not going well for Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga this year. They lost to Leipzig 3-2 in the match they were leading 2-0. This is their first defeat in the league since last year. Xabi thought he would have a good team this year, but he must have been wrong.

It's simple an answer to find about your doubt, Bayer Leverkusen don't seem to have that might and magic anymore to retain their bundlesliga championship position. Unlike last season they have started this season's with a poor campaign, their last game before Leipzig was a struggle which they narrowly managed to get full three point  at added time.

From the moment Leverkusen manager Alonso expresses his unwillingness to sign any player in the summer transfer I knew they were going to have a hard time finding success this season. Their style and strategy which they used in Winning matches previously  has been studied and understood by their opponent coaches so I think Alonso has to go back to the drawing board to restrategize else they won't make it far even in the champions league competition.

This didn't age well. Like I said, it's way too early to pick who would win the game based on performance. You saw how Leverkusen played in their first games, they were dominant as usual but they almost shared the points if they had not gotten that late goal to win the game, how does that convince you that they will finish the season unbeaten? Bayern Munich also finished won their game the same way.
Leverkusen's loss to Leipzig doesn't mean they won't compete for the league this season, its just the second league match of the season, there are still 35 matches to play.
If you are talking about dominance in the game, then remember the season that preceded the one in which Bayer became champions, the one when they were at the bottom of the table for a long time, simply because they could not score, although they played very well. Leipzig is a strong team, there is no doubt about it, but Bayer should have played better at home as champions, maybe one defeat is not a death sentence, but now in case of Bayern winning they will be in the role of catch-up, and for Bayern this can be an additional incentive.

In the Bundesliga match, Stuttgart, Dortmund and Leverkusen are the favorite team, so Stuttgart and Leverkusen played at home, but all three team failed to win the second week match.
Starting with Dortmund who met Bremen with final score of 0 - 0 and Stuttgart against Mainz with final score of 3 - 3, then followed by Leverkusen who was defeated by Leipzig with final score of 2 - 3, which was quite bad was Dortmund because apart from not being able to beat Bremen, they also had to receive red card.
I took all three in one multi-bet slip along with Bayern Munich as the last team that was the favorite, but unfortunately the other three teams have failed and made everything not according to expectations.


It is quite surprising indeed the results of the top Bundesliga teams this week, especially I see the big surprise is Leverkusen's defeat which previously many said that they would try to maintain the record like last season but unfortunately in the second week's match they had already experienced defeat and even that happened at their home ground
I see this is not Leverkusen who experienced a decline in quality but the increase in the quality of the Leipzig team that made them win the match.

I watched this match, and I saw Leverkusen's defeat was quite painful, they conceded in the final minutes like they can do to other teams when they win but now they are experiencing it.

how Bayern Leverkusen has started this season, I believe they will go unbeaten again since they are doing so well. I am looking forward to their match against Leipzig because they are dominating the game. And as for Bayern Munich, they have improved under the new coach and have not lost any of their matches.

This season I still consider Bayer Leverkusen as a strong candidate for the title but the path will be different, meaning they will not be able to run smoothly like last season. The defeat from Leipzig is proof that other Bundesliga teams have also made changes to their squads so that this season's competition is no longer dominated by just one team. What about Bayern who were previously not considered at all because they were commanded by Kompany? but in reality he was able to manage the team well. I agree that at the beginning of this season it will not guarantee until the end of the season but at least we already know what each team's picture is like this season.

Bayern Munich embarked on a new adventure with Vincent Kompany as they host Freiburg at home in their second match of the season. Bayern's defensive problems, which were very noticeable last season, continued in the first match of the season. Even though Bayern had defensive problems, they showed in the last game that they are very effective in offense. Bayern Munich will remind the opposition of the quality of their squad in this match. Freiburg, on the other hand, showed how dangerous they can be, especially in attack, with wins against Osnabruck and Stuttgart. Although Bayern is the favorite in this match, Freiburg can take advantage of Bayern's defensive weaknesses and score. My preference will be a mutual goal.
I also think that Bayern Munich is the favorite in the match to be played tonight. I think that the chances of winning the Bundesliga this year are getting higher and higher. I liked the way Kompany played, but a defensive problem could be solved by a coach who played in defense in the past. I am sure that Kompany will soon pay extra attention to the defense and give them the necessary information. Because in the last match, two balls lost in the defense area came back to Bayern Munich as two goals. I hope that such a thing does not happen in this match because Freiburg is much stronger in the offensive line.

Leverkusen have only played two matches this season although the defeat really surprised many people because indeed many people did not expect Leverkusen to lose at home when facing Leipzig. And because this is Leverkusen's first defeat to Leipzig at home, I will not immediately doubt Leverkusen for this season because there are many matches that can still be considered as opportunities for Leverkusen to return to the top. I really have no doubts about Xabi Alonso's order even though it is true that when facing Leipzig, Xabi Alonso's team did not play very well.
This defeat was very surprising because previously Leverkusen had led 2-0 through goals scored by Jeremie Frimpong and Alex Grimaldo. Leipzig performance was extraordinary in this match, even though they were already 2 goals behind and their coach received a red card, they were able to make a comeback which turned the score around to 3-2, Lois Openda contributed two goals and the other goal was scored by Kevin Kampl. This defeat means that Leverkusen unbeaten record in the Bundesliga ends at 35 matches, the results that have just been achieved are a bad sign for Leverkusen, everyone never thought Leverkusen would lose in front of their fans plus they had a 2 goal lead. Xabi Alonso must immediately correct this mistake because this embarrassing incident occurred at his home base and the Bundesliga has only entered its second week.
