Xabi Alonso's Bayer Leverkusen faces a daunting task to overturn a 3-0 deficit against Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League. The first leg was marked by multiple mistakes from Leverkusen, including crucial errors from goalkeeper Matej Kovar and the sending off of Nordi Mukiele.

Alonso's initial success in the Bundesliga contrasts sharply with this current challenge as they seek to rewrite their narrative.
Alonso's Leverkusen must recreate past glories, needing a 3-0 win in the second leg to stay alive in the Champions League after a brutal first leg.
