This is a negative result because the majority of individuals gambled on Leverkusen to win the game, resulting in a tie. When viewed through the lens of the team, the outcome is satisfactory. It has helped the club improve, and they are all improving by drawing away games.
In my perspective, the club performed better in this game, despite Qarabag dominating the game, which was an unexpected result. That is why I do not underestimate a squad like Qarabag because it is capable of surprising us. Things are looking up now that Xabi's team's next game is away.

It will not be funny if Leverkusen loses to Qarabag in the second leg.

If I'm not mistaken Bayer Leverkusen's prematch odds against Qarabag are around @ 1.50 so it's true that many will immediately choose Bayer Leverkusen on the money line because Qarabag doesn't look like a balanced opponent for Bayer, but apparently not because the home team managed to take the lead first, and maybe those who like live match betting will immediately place a new bet with more attractive odds, but I didn't check what the 1X2 odds were when Qarabag was leading 2-0.
This is indeed a bad result but usually Bayer Leverkusen will perform better when the previous match was quite disappointing, and because the second match will be played at home to Bayer Leverkusen, I still believe that this team will qualify for the quarter-finals, by winning the second match even though with a narrow score.

Very spectacular results were shown by Liverpool despite playing away Liverpol was able to win Sparta Prague 5-1. with 2 goals scored by Daren Nunez.
that way when playing at home at Anfield will be more relaxed. because with a 5-1 victory has guaranteed Liverpool qualify for the quarter-finals.

All six goals scored in this match were scored by Liverpool players

because Connor Bradley made a mistake which makes their opponent score one goal.
Agree that the second match will be very relaxed for Liverpool unless they continue to try to set a record, but bringing back their young players like in the Carabao Cup final is very possible for Klopp, especially since the English Premier League matches will be more important for the time being because they still have to maintain their position at the top of the standings.

However, of all the matches that were quite surprising were the AC Milan vs Slavia Prague match and Benfica vs Rangers.
Slavia Prague were still able to score two goals with only 10 players even though their final result was a loss but AC Milan did not show superiority in this match, and Benfica who were held to a draw by Ranger will make it easier for Ranger in the second match later, and AS Roma scored four goals without reply which is very impressive. and they have the chance to qualify because Brighton has to score five goals without replying in the second match and that is quite difficult in my opinion, even though sometimes Brighton can play very aggressively, of course Roma will try to thwart every Brighton attack later.
