Wirtz remains surprisingly on the bench: Xabi Alonso explains the drama!
Florian Wirtz, the undisputed regular player of Bayer Leverkusen, was on the bench in the game against Borussia Dortmund for over an hour. Coach Xabi Alonso explained the situation in the evening and cited the reason that Wirtz was in a traffic jam on a bridge in Cologne and therefore came to the team too late. Alonso noted that the bridge caused many problems and that Execiel Palacios was also affected by this traffic jam, since it was only introduced in the final phase, such as Noz reported.
The non -calling of Wirtz to the starting eleven caused astonishment because he is considered one of the most talented players. Wirtz was originally listed as a starter on the official social media of Bayer Leverkusen. Xabi Alonso said that "something unexpected" happened in the morning of the game, but there were no health problems at Wirtz. He described the situation as "something internal" and confirmed that Wirtz would play in the second half, such as Yahoo " Sports reported.
