Bayer Leverkusen's Unbeaten Streak Snapped in Thrilling Europa League Final

Ademola Lookman's Hat-Trick Stuns German Giants

Bayer Leverkusen's remarkable 51-game unbeaten streak came to a crashing end as Italian club Atalanta pulled off a stunning 5-2 victory in the Europa League final, with Nigerian forward Ademola Lookman stealing the show with an extraordinary hat-trick.

Atalanta, underdogs heading into the match, stunned the German giants with a dominant display at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin. Lookman opened the scoring in the 17th minute with a clinical finish, before doubling Atalanta's lead with a superb solo effort just before the half-hour mark.

Atalanta's Historic Triumph

Atalanta's victory marks their first major European trophy in 61 years, and a testament to the team's resilience and determination. The Italian side overcame several setbacks throughout the Europa League campaign, including injuries and key player departures.

Lookman's hat-trick was the icing on the cake for Atalanta, as the 26-year-old forward became the first player to score a treble in a Europa League final since 2010. The Nigerian's performance was a testament to his skill and confidence, and he was rightly named man of the match.
