What a fantastic result. Look forward to reading more about the match later, in the meantime I'll content myself knowing that even with both Hertha and Werder winning as well, our push up the ladder continues. Not to mention snatching the points from a very difficult destination.

Besides, we now look forward to home games against beatable opposition, while Hertha and Bremen face each other next week, then have very difficult matches on the 23rd. Keep the faith, this season could yield good results after all.

:( disappointing season for Leverkusen.

Hopefully Bayern reaches the DFB Cup final. The 6th place would then be enough for UEFA Cup qualification.

We had some really sunny days last week and the week before. But now winter strikes back. Will get better next week IIRC.

I was going to ask why would that be, but I understand now. Bielefeld is the only team left who won't finish in a UEFA Cup or CL place. So, if the DFB Pokal Finale is Bayern v. Scheisse or Bremen, that UEFA Cup spot drops one since they will all be in UEFA competition anyhow.

I knew it had been warmer in Bavaria. But, I don't care how cold it was. WE WON IN LEVERKUSEN!!!!
