LEVERKUSEN, Germany: Undefeated Bayer Leverkusen secured their first Bundesliga title on Sunday (Apr 15) with a 5-0 victory over Werder Bremen, breaking an 11-year stranglehold on the league by Bayern Munich.
Bayer Leverkusen won the Bundesliga title for the first time in their 120-year history on Sunday after a 5-0 victory over Werder Bremen ended Bayern Munich's 11-year domination of the German top-flight.
Borussia Dortmund host Atletico Madrid in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie on Tuesday looking for inspiration from their Westfalenstadion fortress to overturn a 2-1 deficit. Winners in 1997 and finalists in 2013, Dortmund are somehow still in with a shot at returning to the semi-finals despite a terrible start in Madrid, with Edin Terzic's overawed side trailing by two goals after 30 minutes. Dortmund composed themselves and were arguably the better side for the remaining 60 minutes but, despite a crucial Sebastien Haller goal, will rue two slapstick defensive mistakes which gave Atletico the upper hand.
Bayer Leverkusen coach Xabi Alonso said his unbeaten side was "not done yet" after winning their debut league title on Sunday with a treble still possible this season. Leverkusen's 5-0 win over Werder Bremen at home on Sunday, including a second-half hat-trick from Florian Wirtz, sealed a first Bundesliga title in their 120-year history. Alonso -- who is in his first full season as a coach having joined Leverkusen midway through last season -- told reporters after the game the sky was the limit for his side, who are yet to lose a match in 43 games this season.

Arsenal's Premier League title hopes suffered a massive blow as Aston Villa struck twice in the closing stages to boost their top four bid with a dramatic 2-0 win at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday. Mikel Arteta's side would have gone back to the top of the table with a victory, but instead they surrendered the initiative to Manchester City after conceding two goals in the last six minutes. Leon Bailey put the visitors ahead and Ollie Watkins doubled their lead as Villa boss Unai Emery enjoyed a second sweet win this season over the club that sacked him in 2019. Arsenal's first defeat in 12 league games leaves them in second place, two points behind City, while third placed Liverpool are behind Arsenal on goal difference. With just six games left, champions City are closing in on an unprecedented fourth successive Premier League crown.
