[28th Minute]
Leverkusen restarted the game with urgency. Volland, visibly frustrated, clapped his hands, urging his teammates forward. Wendell advanced up the left flank, combining neatly with Bailey to bypass Thommy. The Jamaican winger took off, his electric pace leaving Düsseldorf's right side scrambling. Bailey's quick step-over and burst of speed brought him to the edge of the box, where he unleashed a low-driven shot aimed for the far corner after gaining separation from Zimmermann Düsseldorf's right back.
Steffen reacted like lightning, diving to the ground to his right to palm the ball away. He wasn't given a chance to react and could only let his muscle memory do the job and luckily for him, he took his daily training seriously. However, the rebound spilled dangerously into the six-yard box, but Hoffmann came to the rescue sliding in heroically clearing it just before Volland could tap it home.
