Video: Granit Xhaka scores goal of the season contender to give Bayer Leverkusen the lead in the DFB Pokal final
Granit Xhaka has scored a stunner to give Bayer Leverkusen the lead in the DFB Pokal final.
Wirtz tried to work his magic just outside the penalty area, but ran into a sea of FCK defenders.
The ball rebounded into the path of the former Arsenal midfielder, who ambitiously curled an effort first-time from nearly 20 yards out. It flew into the top corner, leaving the goalkeeper with no chance!
