Bayer Leverkusen faces a monumental challenge as they seek to overturn a three-goal deficit against Bayern Munich in their Champions League round of 16 second-leg clash on Tuesday at BayArena.
After a disappointing second-half performance in the first leg on March 5, Leverkusen suffered a 3-0 defeat to their Bundesliga rivals. Additionally, they find themselves trailing Bayern by eight points in the league standings.
Defensive errors proved costly for Leverkusen, as they were already 1-0 down at halftime before goalkeeper Matej Kovar’s misjudged attempt to collect a routine cross in the 54th minute gifted Jamal Musiala an easy finish.
