For 11 consecutive yrs, Bundesliga was the fiefdom of Bayern Munich, which received every single German league title from 2013-23.
That is not real anymore—and Bayern Munich’s dominance has been undone in report-breaking manner.
Bayer Leverkusen—the presently-crowned champions of Germany—crushed Eintracht Frankfurt 5-1 Sunday to run its unbeaten streak to an astounding 48 games.
With the victory, the Leverkusen-based club tied the file for longest all-competitiveness unbeaten streak by any European club due to the fact pan-European opposition began in the 1956 season. Portuguese powerhouse Benfica went 48 online games with no a loss from 1963-65, led by legendary striker Eusébio.
Maestro supervisor Xabi Alonso’s club can crack Benfica’s mark Thursday in opposition to Roma in the next leg of the two teams’ Europa League semifinal.
Bayer Leverkusen still has a means to go to beat the continent’s all-time history, even so. That mark is held by Scottish powerhouse Celtic, which went 62 matches without having a decline from 1915-17.
