Bayern Vs Leverkusen: Die Roten Is One Step Away From Winning The Bundesliga
JAKARTA - Bayern Munich "locked" the German League title after beating Bayer Leverkusen 2-0 in the 30th match at the Allianz Arena Stadium, Tuesday local time (Wednesday, western Indonesia time).
Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting gave Bayern the lead when the game was not yet seven minutes long, through his alacrity to grab the thrown ball from Thomas Mueller's shot which was not completely stopped by goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky.
Then six minutes later, Joshua Kimmich's advantage was doubled by Joshua Kimmich, who took advantage of a wild ball on the edge of the penalty box, after Daley Sinkgraven failed to anticipate a corner.
Bayern actually made no less than 20 more attempted shots, but none of them bore fruit until the whistle broke.

On the other hand, Leverkusen's countermeasures also failed, including Karim Bellarabi's shot which hit the crossbar in the 70th minute.
With this result, Bayern took advantage of the failure of their closest competitor RB Leipzig to win three full points in an earlier match.
Bayern is firmly at the top, now collecting 71 points or 10 points ahead of Leipzig and on paper, they only need a draw in the next match to be crowned champions of the German League.
In contrast to Leverkusen (47), the defeat was stuck in the sixth position, still seven points adrift of the top four, Antara reported according to the official German League website.
Bayern will become champion of the German League on Saturday (24/4) this week if they can win at least one point on a visit to the headquarters of FSV Mainz.
In another match taking place at the same time, Leverkusen will host their rivals in the top-four race, Eintracht Frankfurt, at BayArena.
