Yes, I'd like to see videos dispalyed.
The football magazine kicker described the match on 21 April 1984 in front of 9,500 spectators as follows:
Game decided inside a minute
Two goals from Herbert Waas after a good ten weeks out injured, a decent performance from Wolfgang Patzke after an even longer lay-off and a penalty save from Rüdiger Vollborn were the pleasing circumstances surrounding Bayer 04 Leverkusen's 2-0 win over FC Kaiserslautern, with which the Werkself finally eliminated a potential rival for a UEFA Cup spot.
Although Leverkusen were able to send out their preferred first XI for the first time that season, not everything went according to plan, especially as Kaiserslautern had a goalkeeper in Ronnie Hellström who consistently frustrated the opposition strikers with his saves.
The game was then decided inside a minute, as Waas slotted home straight after Eilenfeldt's missed penalty to make it 2-0, after Hellström had only been able to palm away a shot from Cha, who had a brilliant game but was unlucky with his finishing.
Kaiserslautern turned up the pressure after going behind, with Brehme in particular standing out, but the best they could manage was a superb shot by Hübner that hit the post.
Vöge in particular failed to improve on the result for Leverkusen from counter-attacks towards the end of the game.
When coach Dettmar Cramer was asked about the Werkself's UEFA Cup dreams after the game, he replied: "We have a good chance, why shouldn't we be able to take it?"
Ultimately, they would finish the season in seventh place, but it was a Bayer 04 team’s first-ever sniff of a UEFA Cup spot, which would only be achieved for the first time under the stewardship of coach Erich Ribbeck in 1986.
Christoph Daum was born on 24 October 1953 in Zwickau. As a child, he moved to West Germany with his mother and grew up in Duisburg. He developed a great enthusiasm for football at an early age, even though it soon became clear that his future lay less on the pitch than on the sidelines. Even at a young age, his passion for analysing, explaining and improving things became apparent.

When the Bayer 04 players celebrated Christmas in 1960, they spent the winter in second place in the Oberliga West 2 on 20 points - but already five points behind leaders Schwarz-Weiß Essen. However, coach Erich Garske's team are struggling to get back on track in the new year. A goalless draw against Bonner FV at home at the Ulrich Haberland Stadium was followed by a 2-1 away defeat in Erkenschwick. The following home game also yielded just one point. As a result, the team's promotion ambitions dwindled to a minimum, as the gap to the coveted spot has now grown to a challenging ten points.

As league leaders, the Werkself welcomed the relegation-threatened team from Rhenania Würselen. On 4 February 1951, 5,000 spectators line the touchlines despite the Sunday carnival parades. And they see a home team that is superior on the pitch. Without Theo Kirchberg, who was ill, and Emil Becks, who was suspended, the hosts attacked the opposing goal from the start. Battling against a strong wind in the first half, Bayer 04 created chance after chance, but were repeatedly thwarted by the Würselen goalkeeper. With the score at 0-0 at half-time, Karl Heinz Spikofski tried his luck on 55 minutes and hammered the ball into the opposition net from 20 metres out. Rhenania can no longer counterattack. The siege of the Würselen penalty area continued right to the end, but the game ended in a narrow 1-0 win.
