Leverkusen, Guirassy, Xavi dazzle in Bundesliga
Bayer Leverkusen showcased their prowess as they faced Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena during Matchday 4 of the Bundesliga. Leverkusen’s stellar performance continued their winning streak, having already secured victories against formidable opponents like RB Leipzig, Borussia Mönchengladbach, and newly-promoted Darmstadt in the earlier matches of the season. This clash of the titans saw Leverkusen, who were positioned first in the league, confront second-placed Bayern Munich. Despite twice falling behind, Leverkusen displayed remarkable resilience and ultimately settled for a share of the points.
The match featured some standout moments, with Harry Kane opening the scoring with a header for Bayern Munich. Leverkusen responded with a sensational free-kick from Alex Grimaldo that left spectators in awe. Exequiel Palacios sealed the draw for Leverkusen by converting a late penalty to cancel out Leon Goretzka’s goal. In the aftermath of the game, Leverkusen’s coach and former Bayern midfielder, Xabi Alonso, expressed his satisfaction with his team’s performance. He emphasized the importance of personality, quality, and mentality in building the foundation for success.
While it might be premature to discard their infamous ‘Neverkusen’ tag, a nickname acquired after their unfortunate finish in the 2002 season when they were runners-up in the Bundesliga, DFB Cup, and UEFA Champions League, Leverkusen’s early-season form is undoubtedly promising.
Another standout player in the Bundesliga’s Matchday 4 was Serhou Guirassy of VfB Stuttgart. Guirassy’s remarkable start to the campaign has put him in contention to challenge established goal-scorers like Harry Kane and Leverkusen’s Victor Boniface for the top of the goalscoring charts this season. Victor Boniface, Leverkusen’s top scorer, has notched an impressive four goals in four appearances, complemented by two assists. However, Serhou Guirassy outshone them all with a sensational hat-trick in Stuttgart’s 3-1 victory over Mainz.
What makes Guirassy’s performance even more remarkable is his ruthless efficiency. He has scored eight goals from just eight shots on target, underlining his clinical finishing ability. Stuttgart, with 14 goals to their name, leads the Bundesliga in terms of goal-scoring, surpassing the likes of Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig. Impressively, Guirassy has accounted for 57 percent of Stuttgart’s goals, indicating his pivotal role in their attacking prowess.
As the Bundesliga season unfolds, it’s becoming increasingly evident that Serhou Guirassy could emerge as a serious contender for the Torjägerkanone, the coveted award for the league’s top goal scorer, challenging the likes of Harry Kane and Victor Boniface. His exceptional form and clinical goal-scoring ability make him one to watch in what promises to be an exciting and competitive Bundesliga campaign.
