In the 5th round of the Bundesliga, Andrich scored the first goal, and Pavlovic equalized the score, ultimately ending the game with Leverkusen drawing 1-1 away against Bayern Munich. After the match, Leverkusen’s head coach Alonso accepted an interview with the media.
Despite a lack of offensive threat, Alonso was very pleased with his team’s defensive resilience. He said, “Bayern’s energy and belief are different from last season; they gave their all in both attack and defense. Today was very tough. We are satisfied with this point. I needed more energy from the team. I am very pleased with this. We were prepared to suffer, and we did it. We needed discipline and passion from the players.”
“It wasn’t easy; we didn’t have control of the ball. Defending was a challenge. This point is very important. The entire team performed very well. We hardly had a chance to catch our breath, but I am very proud of my players.”
Leverkusen will now shift their focus to the upcoming Champions League match at home against AC Milan next week.
