In his first Champions League match, Bayer Leverkusen made a 2-2 draw against FC Copenhagen in Denmark. The German team experienced difficulties at home, and the outcome of the match was closer to a defeat than anything else. The final phase proved particularly exciting, especially after the equalization of Alejandro Grimaldo at the 82nd minute. Copenhagen had taken advantage from the 9th minute thanks to Jordan Larsson and maintained this lead until then.

However, German hope was short-lived. Only four minutes after Grimaldo’s equalization, Robert Silva again gave Copenhagen the advantage. The situation was further complicated at the end of the game, with a goal against his Pantelis Hatzidiakos camp, sealing the final score of 2-2. This reversal underscores the tension and uncertainty that characterized the game.

After the game, Bayer Leverkusen coach Kasper Hjulmaand expressed his satisfaction with the score. He stressed that the team is still in the learning phase, especially with a relatively new group of players. This meeting was therefore a valuable experience for Bayer Leverkusen, enabling them to test their abilities and progress as a team.
