"An away win to end the year: FC Bayern Women have extended their impressive run! Coach José Barcala's team celebrated a 3-0 (1-0) win at Bayer 04 Leverkusen on Monday evening in the first match of the second half of the Google Pixel Women's Bundesliga season. It was the Munich side's 11th consecutive win, meaning the defending champions end 2025 as unbeaten leaders with 40 points from 14 games."
""It was exactly the game we expected. We knew from our experience in the first game that they press one-on-one. We struggled at first to find our game and our precision," said Barcala after the match. "But the good thing is that we didn't give them many chances and we won. We're happy we have a six-point lead at this stage, but we need to stay calm and continue to take each game as it comes.""
