At 2:30 a.m. on August 18th, in the German Super Cup final, Leverkusen won the championship after defeating Stuttgart in a penalty shootout.
Despite playing with one man less, Xabi Alonso’s Leverkusen fought back in the final stages of the 90 minutes, eventually defeating Stuttgart in a penalty shootout to lift this season’s German Super Cup.
There is no doubt that Xabi Alonso, as the head coach of the team, deserves credit. In less than two years since becoming the head coach of Leverkusen, he has led the team to win the Bundesliga, the German Cup and the German Super Cup in five months. It is worth mentioning that Leverkusen has won a total of six trophies in its history, of which three were won in the last five months.
