In a match full of counter-attacks, the team led by Willibert Kremer dismantle the Zebras and could have been further ahead than 4-0 after 70 minutes. The two goals scored by Duisburg in the last ten minutes are due to lapses of concentration in the Bayer 04 defence who just appeared to be chaperoning the MSV strikers out of anticipation of reaching the target of another year in the Bundesliga. The game ends in a deserved 4-2 victory.
The last matchday of the 1992/93 season. The stadium is full and Leverkusen are looking forward to the cup final the following week. Nevertheless, this match against Borussia Mönchengladbach still has great significance: On the one hand, it's about securing a place in Europe in the improbable event of a defeat against the Hertha Berlin Reserves a week later, and on the other hand the first win of the top goalscorer trophy by a Bayer 04 player, that is Ulf Kirsten. After his main rival Anthony Yeboah (Eintracht Frankfurt) pulled ahead in the first half, there is huge joy amongst the fans and the team when the 'Schwatte' makes it 2-0 on the hour mark to pull level with Yeboah. The Werkself win 4-0 against Mönchengladbach with Yeboah and Ulf Kirsten both topping the scorers list with 20 goals. The two players are awarded the top goalscorer trophy at the next meeting of Bayer 04 and Eintracht Frankfurt in September 1993. Bayer 04 TV bring you the highlights of the win against the Foals.

Emil 'Bubi' Becks was born in Essen on 12 March 1925. As a teenager he played for Union Frintrop. He moved on from Adler Frintrop to the senior team at Rot-Weiß Oberhausen where he scored ten goals in 19 games in his first year in the First Oberliga West. As a skilful centre forward, he brought his teammates into play and was always dangerous in the penalty area. With increasing age he played further and further back with his last games in defensive midfield.

Show moreSV Baesweiler are the visitors to the Ulrich Haberland Stadium on 2 March 1975. With a 2-1 win in front of a crowd of 1,600 the Werkself get revenge for the defeat in the reverse fixture but the best thing about this game were not just two points. Leverkusen failed to really impress against battling visitors. It looked very good after an early goal from Matthias Hemmersbach on eight minutes but the Werkself again went too far with individual actions. Bayer 04 were on top in the first half. And Peter Surbach made it 2-0 with a header at the start of the second 45 but suddenly everything fell apart. Baesweiler pulled a goal back on the hour mark and besieged the goal brilliantly minded by Hubert Makel. In the end it was down to him that the game ended with a 2-1 win.
