The Bayer 04 eSports players were able to show their talent in the first game: In the first 1 vs 1 against the Hassloch player Maxim ‘ElDoll’ Doll, Marc ‘MARC_LDW23’ Landwehr secured a runaway 7-1 victory. And the second game was also full of goals: Furkan ‘FURKY’ Kayacik faced Levin ‘LamboLambert’ Lambert in the second 1 vs 1 and that game ended in an 11-0 win for the Leverkusen player. The Black and Reds thereby secured a convincing overall victory in the first round of the DFB eCup.
The win qualifies the Bayer 04 eSports players for the second round of the DFB eCup on 26 April.
The DFB eCup is a nationwide eFootball competition organised by the German Football Association (DFB). It is open to eFootball professional players and amateur teams from across Germany.
First round results:

Bayer 04 turned in a dominant performance in a 7-0 win against fifth-tier side Sportfreunde Baumberg in their first friendly ahead of the 2026/27 season. A brace from debutant Afonso Moreira (19', 27') either side of a Christian Kofane strike (23') put the Werkself 3-0 up in the first of the two 35-minute halves in Monheim am Rhein. After the break, Victor Boniface (49', 53'), Robert Andrich (56') and Nathan Tella (67') scored for the completely changed Leverkusen team. It was therefore a successful friendly debut for new head coach Carles Martínez and his team, although the hosts also had something to celebrate despite the defeat: the match marked the inauguration of Baumberg's new ground, the MEGA Stadion.
