LEVERKUSEN: Jamaican Leon Bailey scored twice to steer unbeaten Bayer Leverkusen to a 4-1 victory over Hoffenheim on Sunday and take over the lead in the Bundesliga for the first time in six years.
The 23-year-old winger then intercepted an inexplicable 30m back pass from Andrej Kramaric to beat the keeper again for his fourth goal of the campaign.Leverkusen, who were missing half a dozen players to injury and Covid-19, were caught napping when Christoph Baumgartner was left unmarked to charge forward and curl in a shot to cut the deficit in the 50th.
A stoppage time penalty from Lucas Alario sealed their seventh win in the last eight games and they leapfrogged Bayern Munich into first place on 25 points.
