The German champion saved the match in the 88th minute in the Super Cup final against Stuttgart. To then win the penalty shootout.
Bayer Leverkusen was undefeated in the last season and won the cup. In the final of the German Super Cup, they defeated the VfB Stuttgart team with 11 points after a 2-2 draw in regular time.
Although Leverkusen took the lead in Saturday’s match, they had to play with a man disadvantage for almost 60 minutes due to the suspension of Martin Terrier, and Stuttgart was able to turn it around with Deniz Undav’s goal and came close to victory.
However, Leverkusen – as they did several times last season – scored early.
