The opener on the night saw Kai ‘DETO’ Wollin take on the Schalke eSports player Joe 'JH7' Hellmann on PlayStation 4 but he ended up losing 4-0 against his 17-year-old opponent. "I just couldn't get into the game," said the Leverkusen player after the final whistle. And his teammate Fabian ‘B04_DUBZJE’ De Cae was unable to pick up points in the one-on-one encounter on Xbox – he lost 2-0 against the 18-year-old Schalke player Julius 'JULI' Kühle.
There was more joy for the #B04eSports team in the two-against-two clash. New signing Marc ‘MARC_LDW23’ Landwehr played alongside De Cae on Xbox – and, together with the experienced console professional, he succeeded in picking up the first three points of the night with a 2-1 victory against the Royal Blues with a late brace from the virtual Samed Onur.
In the late evening, there were three games against Eintracht Braunschweig on matchday eight. Former world champion 'DETO' was successful in his clash on PS4 against his opponent from Lower Saxony with a 2-1 win against Can ‘QUARE7MA’ Kayhan. ‘B04_DUBZJE’ then lost 4-1 against his Braunschweig opponent Dominik ‘DOMINIK’ Schwerdtfeger in the individual match on Xbox.
The following doubles match ended in a disappointing 3-2 defeat with a late goal for Eintracht settling the result. #B04eSports are currently in a healthy third position in the table but a number of opponents have played one game less.
The experienced Leverkusen player ‘DETO’ drew a first interim conclusion after eight matches in the VBL Club Championship. "Our division (North-West, ed.) is the stronger of the two and is incredibly evenly-matched. It all depends on your form on the day," said the former world champion and last year's champion of Germany on PS4.

Bayer 04 put in a brilliant performance to beat RB Leipzig 4-1 on Bundesliga matchday 32 and are now fourth in a Champions League spot. The Black and Reds took control of the game right from the start and, with 75 per cent possession at one stage, took a 2-0 lead into the break through Patrik Schick (25’) and Nathan Tella (45+1’). The visitors initially tried to do more after the break, but the Werkself remained determined and Schick scored his second goal to increase the lead to 3-0 (76'). The Red Bulls pulled a goal back through Christoph Baumgartner (80'), but the disciplined Leverkusen side were not rattled - and certainly not Schick: The Czechia international crowned a brilliant display with his third goal shortly before the final whistle to make the final score 4-1.

In the previous game against RB Leipzig in December last year, the Werkself turned came from behind to win 3-1 and further improved Leverkusen's already strong record against the Red Bulls. Montrell Culbreath stood out with his first goal on his debut for the Black and Reds. While the 18-year-old would certainly like to score a second goal against Leipzig on Saturday night, the attack-minded visitors come to the BayArena in confident mood after five Bundesliga victories in a row. The Nordkurve12 supporters group knows the Werkself will therefore once again be reliant on the vociferous support of the fans, and has once again called for the ‘Finally Red’ campaign in the run-in. Today’s matchday news.
