Under the leadership of Spaniard Xabi Alonso, Bayer Leverkusen became Bundesliga champions, making it a historic event for German football, as the traditional team had never won this title in its almost 120 years of existence.
And for Ecuador it is also a historic event as the player Piero Hincapié becomes the first Ecuadorian to win a title in German football.
With a convincing 5-0 win over Werder Bremen, Piero Hincapié’s team has been crowned champions with five games to go before the end of the tournament. With this victory, they have added 79 points, making them unreachable for second-placed Bayern Munich, which has 63 and would not be able to catch up with Leverkusen even if they won all their games.
The Ecuadorian defender played an important role in the match that decided the title, although he earned a yellow card in the first half. That did not prevent him from maintaining order in his game and he even came close to scoring a goal.
