Javier Hernandez goal earns Bayer Leverkusen victory over Ingolstadt

Bayer Leverkusen picked up maximum points from a 1-0 win at Ingolstadt, although they could count themselves lucky to come away with the spoils from Bavaria.

Javier Hernandez continued his impressive season with the match-winning goal 17 minutes from time but Bernd Leno was the busier of the two goalkeepers over the 90 minutes at the Audi Sportpark.

He made a good save to deny Alfredo Morales on the volley before Leverkusen defender Wendell almost scored an own goal and ended up clearing his own effort off the goalline after it hit both the post and the crossbar.

However, in the 73rd minute Leverkusen took the lead with Karim Bellarabi bringing the ball forward and timing his pass to perfection to send Hernandez through to slot in his 11th Bundesliga goal of the season and earn his side victory.
