In the final game of the 2023–24 German Bundesliga season, Bayer Leverkusen defeated Augsburg 2-1 in the BayArena on Saturday thanks to an early goal by Victor Boniface.
In lieu of this victory, Leverkusen, who had already won the Bundesliga, would end the season unbeaten in the league.
In the 34-match league, the unbeaten streak that led to the league title consists of 28 wins and 6 draws.
It made history and cemented the names of Boniface and his colleagues in the Bundesliga as the first team to finish the season undefeated.
Boniface, who won the Bundesliga Rookie of the Year award earlier in the week, started the party atmosphere when he slotted home an Amaine Chadli pass inside the area in the 12th minute before Robert Andrich doubled the lead before the half-hour mark.
Mert Komur’s goal on 62 minutes proved only a consolation for Augsburg as Leverkusen sealed victory in front of their passionate fans.
The Levekusen side is led by Xabi Alonso, who is only into his second year but first full season as coach of a senior team.
The team remains unbeaten in all competitions, with the win over Augsburg extending the run to 51 matches.
They have the chance to finish the season unbeaten in all competitions with victories over Atalanta in the UEFA Europa League final on Wednesday and Kaiserslautern three days later.
