Nathan Tella Nets First Goal in Leverkusen's 4-0 Win
On August 22, Nathan Tella scored his first goal of the season as Bayer Leverkusen defeated Wehen Wiesbaden 4-0 in the DFB-Pokal. Tella, a Super Eagles winger, started the match on the bench but made a significant impact after replacing Fernandez in the 65th minute.
He scored Leverkusen's third goal just four minutes later at the BRITA-Arena. The match began with Patrik Schick giving Leverkusen the lead in the 43rd minute, followed by Lucas Vázquez doubling the advantage shortly after halftime.
Tella's goal was crucial as he aims to secure a regular spot in the team. Christian Kofane completed the scoring with a tap-in in the 79th minute, ensuring Leverkusen's progression to the next round of the DFB-Pokal.
Despite playing at home, Wehen Wiesbaden struggled to threaten Leverkusen, who dominated possession with 71 percent compared to the hosts' 29 percent.
