The visitors asserted their dominance early in the match, finding the net twice to send shockwaves through Xabi Alonso’s squad. Chris Führich struck first for Stuttgart just moments into the second half, followed by Denis Undav's brilliant goal, marking the first time Leverkusen trailed by two goals this season.

However, Leverkusen showed their resilience, quickly pulling one back just four minutes after Undav’s goal, thanks to Amine Adli’s well-placed effort into the corner of the net. Despite Stuttgart's solid defensive line and Alexander Nübel's remarkable double save, Leverkusen continued to press for an equalizer.

In a thrilling climax, Robert Andrich delivered the much-needed salvation for Leverkusen, smashing home a chaotic set piece in the final minute of stoppage time to level the score at 2-2. This hard-fought draw extends Leverkusen’s unbeaten run to an unprecedented 46 games, marking a historic milestone for the club.
