Qarabağ made a surprise by eliminating Braga in the previous round. Can Qarabağ make another surprise? Bayer Leverkusen earned a 2-2 draw in the Round of 16 first leg away to Qarabag. Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen are on course for a first Bundesliga title, 10 points clear of Bayern Munich at the top of the table.
Qarabag's performance has been quite impressive so far. But, in the second leg, I'm not sure Xabi will just let it go. Based on the results of this match, Xabi will definitely have a lot of tactical evaluations for the future. At least, the full first team must be deployed from the start. There are no trivial words in this UEFA Europe league match. There will be many possibilities for everything, and this is quite a valuable lesson for Xabi.
Ac milan played openly, sometimes they were too busy attacking and were not ready when there was a counterattack. Ac milan has a big advantage in this match because they are playing at home and are also superior in number of players. The current score was 3-2 where Prague was able to reduce the deficit in the second half. I think Ac milan should be able to take advantage of the situation to continue scoring goals because in terms of play they are able to dominate it well.
This is quite dangerous for Milan. They might think that a score of 3 - 1 is safe. But this is a match, as long as the whistle has not been blown for the end, there is no calm. especially in these conditions, with only 10 players, Slavia Prague could break through Milan's goal with 2 goals. This is not luck, but this is the effort of the Slavia players to play as optimally as possible even with only 10 players.
On the other hand, this is a lesson for Milan, however, they must not only focus on attacking, but their defense must also be maintained. Meanwhile, from the match statistics, especially their attacks, they missed many chances to score goals.
