I thought that Leverkusen would face more difficulty when facing against Roma in the first leg. For, Roma is getting better currently. But, who knows? The condition was very different. Well, Roma may be quite dominant in the ball possession. But the fact that they were not able to optimize the chances to attack and make goals, chance the mind. On the other hand, Xabi made Leverkusen play much more effective. No denied, their attacking lines were also strong enough to make Roma beaten. And I am also sure enough that Leverkusen will continue the record of unbeaten, and will continue to final smoothly.
Leverkusen fought very well, showed a mature performance with a lot of discipline, and had a good defense.
I love Alonso's style on the pitch...
Leverkusen are getting closer to their first UEL final in 22 years.
And this result also extends Leverkusen's unbeaten run this season, having not lost in 47 matches in all competitions.
This is excellent team development from Alonso, A great coach.
