Our team is looking to qualify for the quarter-finals of the Champions League to be among the best eight teams of the continent. In the first-leg match, our team won by 2-4 at Leverkusen’s BayArena. Saúl, Griezmann, Gameiro and Torres scored the winning goals in Leverkuesen.

This is the second time that our team meets the Germans in the European Cup. The first time, we eliminated Bayer in the round of 16 of the 14/15 Champions League after winning in the penalty shootouts.

In the first leg, Griezmann became the team’s top scorer in the European Cup with goal. He scored his 13th goal, surpassing an Atlético myth such as Luis Aragonés (12).

Bayer comes to this duel after hiring a new manager. Tayfun took charge of the team and tied 1-1 against Werder Bremen last Friday in his début. Bayer is tenth in the Bundesliga ranking, 4 points away from the Europa League and 11 away from Champions’ qualifying positions.
