Bayer Leverkusen won today, March 14, 2024, the Bundesliga championship for the first time.
Bayer 04 Leverkusen is a prominent German football club based in Leverkusen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. The club was founded in 1904 by employees of the German pharmaceutical company Bayer AG, and this origin deeply influenced its early years. Up until the 1970s, Bayer Leverkusen was primarily composed of employees from Bayer AG, reflecting the club's roots as a company team and giving its nickname "Werkself", German for "Factory's team of eleven". This connection not only defined its identity but also shaped the club's culture and values, emphasizing community and worker participation.
Bayer Leverkusen first joined the Bundesliga, Germany’s top-tier football league, in 1979. Since then, it has consistently competed at high levels. Despite its successes, the club is perhaps best known for its series of near misses in various competitions, earning the nickname "Vizekusen", also "Neverkusen" in English. This moniker stems from the 2001-2002 season when Leverkusen finished second in the Bundesliga, the German Cup, and the UEFA Champions League, highlighting a pattern of falling just short of major titles.
Today it earned the title with a 5–0 win over Werder Bremen, remining unbeaten after 43 consecutive games including the whole season until now. CONGRATULATIONS BAYER 04 LEVERKUSEN !!
