German first division club, Bayer Leverkusen engraved their name into the history books on Saturday, with a remarkable 5-0 victory over struggling Bochum, extending their unbeaten streak to 50 games.

Spaniard Xabi Alonso, who is the club’s manager has lead the team to become the first team in Bundesliga history to complete an entire league run without tasting defeat.

Although Bochum made a bright start, their hopes were short lived as Leverkusen capitalised on one of Bochum’s players being sent off, with Schick opening the scoring just before half-time.

Nigerian Victor Boniface doubled Leverkusen’s lead from the penalty spot on the stroke of half-time after Keven Schlotterbeck’s foul on Tella.
