Leverkusen dominated RB Leipzig in their Bundesliga clash on Sunday, thanks to Erling Haaland and Kai Havertz's goals.
The game was played at the Allianz Arena, where Leverkusen were looking to bounce back from a disappointing defeat against Eintracht Frankfurt last weekend. The visitors had plenty of chances to score, but it was Leverkusen who took advantage of a mistake by RB Leipzig goalkeeper Robin Zuber to take the lead in the first half.
Havertz then added to Leverkusen's lead in the second half, before Erling Haaland completed his hat-trick with a stunning finish. The victory means that Leverkusen have now won four consecutive games in all competitions, while RB Leipzig dropped to fifth place in the table.
Haaland's performance was particularly impressive, as he scored two goals and set up another for Kai Havertz. The Norwegian striker has been in fine form this season, scoring 11 goals in just eight matches.
Overall, it was a dominant display from Leverkusen, who showed why they are one of the top teams in Germany. They will be hoping to continue their winning run when they face Hoffenheim next week.
