For 11 consecutive years, Bundesliga was the fiefdom of Bayern Munich, which won every German league title from 2013-23.
That is not true anymore—and Bayern Munich's dominance has been undone in record-breaking fashion.
Bayer Leverkusen—the already-crowned champions of Germany—crushed Eintracht Frankfurt 5-1 Sunday to run its unbeaten streak to an astounding 48 games.
With the victory, the Leverkusen-based club tied the record for longest all-competition unbeaten streak by any European club since pan-European competition began in the 1956 season. Portuguese powerhouse Benfica went 48 games without a loss from 1963-65, led by legendary striker Eusébio.
Maestro manager Xabi Alonso's club can break Benfica's mark Thursday against Roma in the second leg of the two teams' Europa League semifinal.
