Xabi Alonso’s side continues to impress in the Bundesliga.

Bayer Leverkusen won against RB Leipzig 3-2 at Red Bull Arena as the winning goal scored Piero Hincapie in the extra time and Bayer remained at the top in the Bundesliga with 48 points after 18 matches – 7 more points than 2nd Bayern Munich, but the Bavarian side have 2 games in hands.

That was Leverkusen’s 4th straight victory in the Bundesliga as the club remains the only unbeaten side in the elite European championships.

Xavi Simons scored the 1st goal in the match to give the Bulls lead at halftime, but Nathan Tella scored for the away side to tie the match at the beginning of the 2nd half.

Lois Openda gave the lead to Leipzig again with his goal in the 56th minute but Jonathan Tah netted in the 63rd minute.

When it seemed like the two teams would share the points, Alejandro Grimaldo found Piero Hincapie inside the box, and he scored the winning goal in the 91st minute.
