Nathan Tella delivered a standout performance, providing a vital assist in Bayer Leverkusen’s 2-0 victory over Augsburg at the WWK Arena on Saturday.
The game’s opening goal came in the 14th minute, with Martin Terrier converting from a Jeremie Frimpong assist.
Tella added his contribution by setting up Florian Wirtz for the second goal just before halftime, highlighting his growing importance to the squad.
The 25-year-old winger has now registered two assists in 10 league appearances this season for the reigning Bundesliga champions.
His recent performances suggest a player finding his form, especially after netting his first goal of the season in the DFB Pokal—a decisive strike that secured Leverkusen’s progress in the competition.
Tella was substituted three minutes from time, making way for Aleix Garcia as Leverkusen closed out a professional performance.
With the win, Xabi Alonso’s side climbed to second place on the Bundesliga table, narrowing the gap to four points behind leaders Bayern Munich.
