Xabi Alonso was the main star of the first Bundesliga celebration in the history of Bayer Leverkusen. The aspirin team gave themselves a festival of goals against Werder Bremen (5-0) to prove the title and the field invasion forced the players to take refuge in the locker room, where the beer was watering the celebrate in style, with a shower for the Basque coach.
“It’s the first time Leverkusen has won the title in its 120-year history. I’m happy to be a part of it,” Xabi Alonso explained to DAZN. “It’s a time to celebrate. We don’t always win in the Bundesliga, we focus on the next games next week. Today we have to enjoy, celebrate, celebrate with family, friends and fans,” he noted.
“This is a special day for everyone, for the club, for the past great players who have played here. This title belongs to many people and we have to enjoy it, the first Schale (the trophy awarded to the champion) for the club,” Alonso added.
“Perhaps it is also healthy for the Bundesliga and German football if other teams win the championship. It is a great joy that it is us,” said Alonso, who does not end a season in which his team does not know the defeat and pending the final of the Pokal and still alive in the Europa League.
“We still have big goals. In the Europa League we want to go as far as possible, we have a good chance to reach the semi-finals and the Cup,” said Xabi Alonso.
