The German football champions beat Feyenoord Rotterdam 4-0 (4-0) on Thursday. Young star Florian Wirtz shone on his CL debut with a brace (6th, 36th). ÖFB team player Gernot Trauner played his first game from the start for Feyenoord after suffering from thigh problems since the European Championships in Germany three months ago.
Wirtz gave Leverkusen an early lead with a long-range shot. After that, Feyenoord had more possession, but were mercilessly countered by Bayer in their own stadium. Jeremie Frimpong assisted on Alejandro Grimaldo’s goal (30′) and on Wirtz’s second goal. Trauner was shown a yellow card for a foul on Grimaldo, and Edmond Tapsoba headed the resulting free kick cross into the middle. Feyenoord goalkeeper Timon Wellenreuther then put the ball into his own goal (45′).
