Bayer extended their winless streak to 44 matches and set a new record for the top leagues

Bayer Leverkusen sealed the German league title ahead of schedule on the weekend by defeating Werder Bremen 5-0, winning one of the three trophies claimed this season.

Following the Bundesliga, the Pharmacists were awaiting their second Europa League quarterfinal against West Ham United. Bayer lost for a long time in the score 0:1 after a goal by Micheal Antonio, but in the last minute of the main time Jeremy Frimpong's shot and a ricochet helped the German club to restore parity - 1:1.

Thus, Bayer extended their winless streak to 44 consecutive matches in all tournaments. The club from Leverkusen became the first in the history of Europe's top leagues, which did not lose in 44 consecutive matches in all tournaments. Bayer's account has 38 wins and 6 draws.

The club's last defeat in an official match was in the last round of last season's Bundesliga season, when Bayer lost to Bochum 0:3.

We should add that the draw with West Ham was enough for the German club to reach the semifinals of the UEFA Europa League. There Bayer will meet Roma.

Recall that the head coach of Bayer, Xabi Alonso, said that he will remain at the club for the next season.
