FC Augsburg produced a remarkable 2-1 Bundesliga victory at BayArena against Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday, 18 April 2026, as Fabian Rieder scored twice to give the visitors a stunning away result that continued their impressive run of form. Leverkusen opened the scoring through Patrik Schick in the 12th minute, but Rieder equalised in the 15th minute and then converted a stoppage-time penalty in the 90th minute plus 7 to complete a victory that sent the Augsburg players and supporters into celebration and dealt a blow to Leverkusen’s own European aspirations in the final weeks of the German top-flight season.
Leverkusen, who had won the Bundesliga title just two seasons earlier under Xabi Alonso and returned to Champions League competition under Erik ten Hag in the 2025-26 campaign, found their BayArena home no guarantee of points against an Augsburg side playing with confidence and collective purpose. Schick’s 12th-minute opener gave the home side exactly the kind of advantage their quality and European experience suggested they would convert into a winning margin.
However, Rieder’s immediate reply in the 15th minute changed the match’s psychological dynamic, and Augsburg’s defensive organisation throughout the remainder of the 90 minutes reflected a collective discipline that frustrated Leverkusen’s creative players repeatedly. The stoppage-time penalty, converted by Rieder with composed precision, completed one of the weekend’s most surprising Bundesliga results. Watch highlights on AllSportsZone.
