By IANS News February 25, 2026 • 09:34 AM View: 133

Champions League: Leverkusen progressed to the Champions League round of 16 after a goalless draw with Olympiacos, comfortably protecting its first-leg cushion at home.

The German side entered the return match holding a two-goal advantage thanks to Patrik Schick's earlier brace, allowing coach Kasper Hjulmand to prioritize control over attacking urgency.

Leverkusen dominated the opening minutes and fashioned the first clear chances, yet their finishing lacked precision, reports Xinhua.
