Xabi Alonso, head coach of Bayer Leverkusen, expressed that reaching the Champions League quarter-finals will require a miracle following their 3-0 loss to Bayern Munich. The match saw Leverkusen struggling with key mistakes, including a red card for Nordi Mukiele and a penalty awarded to Bayern for Harry Kane, worsening their situation. Alonso acknowledged the difficulties they faced but remained hopeful about the upcoming second leg. Conversely, Bayern's coach Vincent Kompany focused on avoiding complacency, emphasizing the importance of maintaining concentration ahead of the return match at Leverkusen.
We have to show a mature performance to control that better. The mistakes and details are important, but it's a bitter evening for us... One goal more or less can make a big difference.
It's the first half. We still have to get into the second game. There's zero percent thinking about the course of the game or anything else.
