Xabi Alonso has achieved a historic milestone in the Bundesliga while playing for Bayer Leverkusen, and Bayern Munich secured a third-place finish.

Julian Nagelsmann, the newly appointed manager of the German national team, has set his sights on winning Euro 2024. In an interview, Nagelsmann expressed his ambition and belief in the team’s potential to achieve success in the tournament. He emphasized the importance of having a winning mentality and stated that the team should have the desire to lift the trophy.

Bayer Leverkusen has made history by becoming the first team in Bundesliga history to complete a full season without losing a match. The team’s remarkable achievement was sealed with a 2-1 victory over Augsburg, bringing their record to 28 wins and six draws. Leverkusen, who are currently chasing a treble, still have the DFB-Pokal final against Kaiserslautern and the UEFA Europa League final against Atalanta to look forward to.

Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane finished the Bundesliga season as the top scorer with an impressive tally of 36 goals. However, it was a disappointing campaign for Bayern Munich as they finished in third place behind VfB Stuttgart. This marks a significant shift in the league’s hierarchy, as Bayern had dominated German football for the past decade.

Former Bayern Munich player Xabi Alonso, who is now a coach at Bayer Leverkusen, expressed his pride in the team’s historic achievement. Alonso believes that their unbeaten season will be remembered for years to come and that it is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the players. He also praised the unwavering support of the fans and acknowledged their passion for the club.

Bayern Munich suffered a 4-2 defeat to Hoffenheim, resulting in their lowest league finish since the 2010-11 season. The 32-time Bundesliga champions had a promising start, going 2-0 up within the first six minutes. However, Hoffenheim staged a remarkable comeback, scoring four unanswered goals to secure a famous victory. This defeat marks a disappointing end to departing manager Thomas Tuchel’s tenure and highlights the need for changes at Bayern.

Despite the disappointment of their league finish, Bayern Munich remains focused on their future goals. The club is already looking ahead to the next big challenges, including the DFB-Pokal final and the UEFA Europa League final. The players and coaching staff are determined to bounce back from their recent setback and end the season on a high note.
