Matchday 27 was first up against VfL Bochum. The Leverkusen team began with good prospects of an overall victory after Marc 'MARC_LDW23' Landwehr and Sean 'SEAN_LDW07' Landwehr beat Ali ‘PREDATORFIFA’ Oskoui Rad and Timo ‘TIMOX’ Siep 2-1 in the 2 vs 2 game. But the following two individual clashes ended in defeat for Leverkusen.
Against FC St. Pauli there was a 2 vs 2 for starters between the Landwehr cousins and Kamal ‘FCSP_KAMAL’ Kamboj and Koray ‘KKORAY34’ Kücükgünar, which ended in a 3-0 defeat. Marc Landwehr then secured a 2-0 win against Kücükgünar but Sean Landwehr went down 2-0 against Kamboj.
Hannover 96 were last up. The Leverkusen duo first lost 4-0 in the 2 vs 2 against Riad ‘ITSRIAAD’ Fazlija and Can ‘CANKOS’ Tuna. That was followed by a narrow 1-0 defeat for Sean Landwehr against Hannover’s Tugrulhan ‘YARONALDO’ Efe Yar.
The three defeats see the #B04eSports team drop from sixth to seventh in the table.
During the week, the Leverkusen team were in the first round proper of the DFB-ePokal, also played in a best-of-three format. The Black and Reds lost two of three games against the Bavarian team SC 04 Schwabach and are therefore out of the digital cup competition.

After the children from the Bayer 04 Football Academy grilled Janis Blaswich and Simeon Rapsch last week, another group of 20 young Werkself fans gathered at the BayArena press conference room on Tuesday afternoon, 28 July . This time, the kids directed their questions at Tim Oermann and Jonah Berghoff. Defender Oermann raved about his school days, whilst talented midfielder Berghoff revealed to the young footballers, amongst other things, who his favourite player is – and he is also at Bayer 04. To round things off, the pair naturally obliged with all requests for autographs and selfies.
