#B04eSports: Best defence in the VBL division

Furkan ‘FURKY’ Kayacik has already talked about the defensive stability of his #B04eSports teammates in his role as presenter and commentator on the live stream on the Bayer 04 Twitch channel. This was also reflected in the results on the fourth double matchday in the VBL Club Championship. In the end there were two 4-4 draws with only three goals conceded.

The Bayer 04 console players kicked off Tuesday night with a match against Hamburg SV, the current leaders of the North-West division. Marc Marc_LDW23’ Landwehr " began with a one-on-one encounter on PlayStation 5. It looked like the game would end goalless but the Leverkusen player conceded late on. A draw would have been fair given the parity in shots on goal.

That was followed by the one-on-one on Xbox for Fabian ‘B04_DUBZJE’ de Cae. The recovered 24-year-old drew with his Hamburg opposite number Steffen ‘FUNINO’ Pöppe with neither side scoring.

In the following two vs two, ‘FURKY’ swapped his commentator mic for his controller with the new signing alongside ‘MARC_LDW23’ – with success! The Black and Red duo beat HSV 1-0 thanks to a late goal with Bayer 04 securing an overall result of 4-4 against the league leaders.

The team identity of the Leverkusen players was not only evident on the consoles: ‘B04_DUBZJE’ and Paul B04_PAUL’ Degner stepped in for 'Furky' during the two vs two clash as presenters of the live stream.

Landwehr wins in one-on-one

The games against SC Paderborn 07 began later in the evening with the Werkself starting with the same players as against Hamburg. And ‘MARC_LDW23’ was able to pick up three points in his one-on-one and PS 5: There was a 2-1 win for the first three points against Paderborn’s Jannis ‘JISTENNSQ’ Pütz. The following one-on-one on Xbox again ended goalless for ‘B04_DUBZJE’ and the Black and Reds were on the wrong end of a 1-0 scoreline in the two vs two game.

The results make Kayacik and Co. the best defence of all the teams in the North-West division: They have only conceded 19 goals in total so far.
