"Patrik Schick and Ibrahim Maza both scored twice as Bayer Leverkusen thumped Heidenheim 6-0 in the Bundesliga on Saturday. Just 72 seconds were on the clock when Schick slotted in the opener; a lightning-quick counter saw Ernest Poku drive through the middle before laying it off to the striker on the left of the box, for his low drive into the bottom-right corner. Having rolled a tame effort into Diant Ramaj's gloves earlier on, Jonas Hofmann glanced in Leverkusen's second 16 minutes in,"
"Poku got in on the act in the 27th minute, guiding a brilliant looping volley over his defender and into the top-left corner, giving the goalkeeper no chance. Maza piled more misery on Heidenheim, who had already made a double substitution, in the first minute of first-half stoppage time, stretching out a leg to deflect Aleix Garcia's cross into the bottom-right corner."
