The game between Bayer 04 Leverkusen and VfB Stuttgart at BayArena in the Bundesliga competition on 27 April 2024 proved to be a thrilling contest, ending in a 2-2 draw. The action-filled match saw both teams displaying a strong mixture of attack and defence.

Bayer 04 Leverkusen started the match slowly. Stuttgart showed its dominance in the early stages, as Chris Fūhrich and Undav Deniz were able to break through Leverkusen's struggling defense and made the score 0-2 in their favour by the 56th minute.

However, Leverkusen soon regrouped and their cohesive teamwork proved successful. Amine Adli opened the scoring for Leverkusen with an assist from Alejandro Grimaldo in the 61st minute. Robert Andrich's goal in the 96th minute, assisted by Piero Hincapie, ensured Bayer 04 Leverkusen split the points with VfB Stuttgart.

A closer look into the statistics shows Leverkusen's attacking dominance, producing 14 shots in total, with 6 on target compared to Stuttgart's 11 shots and just 4 on target. Despite Leverkusen's number of off-target shots (8), they seemed to control the rhythm of the game.

In addition, Leverkusen effectively utilized corners, taking 5 attempts while Stuttgart had just 2. Leverkusen's ball possession advantage was evident in the fact that Stuttgart was called offsides two times in comparison to Leverkusen's single offside offence.

Statistical analysis of the defensive side shows Stuttgart committed more fouls (19) than Leverkusen (10). This could indicate that Stuttgart was under pressure and utilizing more physical means to safeguard their goal. It also led to more yellow cards for Stuttgart (3) as they struggled to keep control and resorted to more aggressive tactics.

However, Leverkusen was more disciplined in preserving their line, earning only 4 yellow cards in total, which shows the strength of their defensive strategy. Furthermore, neither of the teams received red cards, which proves that despite the intense contest, both teams played under the control of the match's rules and regulations.

Given these findings, it can be said that Leverkusen dominated in offensive aggression and possession, but needed to work on their shot accuracy. Stuttgart, meanwhile, needed to control their aggression that resulted in a higher number of fouls and yellow cards. Their success in the future games highly depends on how well they manage the pressure especially during the opponent team's attacks.

Finally, despite their struggle, Leverkusen's ability to turn the game around, scoring two goals after being two goals down, deserves praise. Their performance proves that neither team should be underestimated and both have promising prospects for the remainder of the competition.
