Bayer 04 beat Alemannia Aachen in friendly
A successful friendly during the international break: Bayer 04 beat Regional League Alemannia Aachen 4-2 on Thursday afternoon 7 September. 500 fans watched the match at the Ulrich Haberland Stadium.
Given that 15 members of the senior squad are away on international duty, Xabi Alonso added U19 and U17 players to his squad for the friendly against Alemannia. The youngsters trained with the Werkself at the start of the week.
With summer temperatures of 25 degrees, the Bayer 04 fans present witnessed a lively performance from the Leverkusen team led by Robert Andrich with the captain's armband. Goals from Werkself players Nadiem Amiri and Gustavo Puerta, a strike from U17 player Naba Mensah plus an Alemannia own goal gave the Black and Reds a 4-0 lead at half-time. Aachen reduced the deficit with a goal from Elsamed Ramaj and a Leverkusen own goal to make it 4-2.
The Werkself players in action today have an extended weekend off. The Leverkusen group will return to work on Monday and start preparations for the top match away to Bayern Munich. That game is on Friday 14 September (kick-off: 20.30 CEST) at the Allianz Arena.
