Qarabag has become the biggest challenge for Leverkusen in the European league this season. They can really make things difficult for Leverkusen. It was a tough match. But I'm sure Leverkusen will be able to beat West Ham in the quarter-finals. What I admire about Leverkusen is their extraordinary winning mentality. They were able to beat Qarabag 3-2 in the second leg after losing 0-2 until the 72nd minute. They really have a good winning mentality. It ended dramatically after Leverkusen scored 2 goals in the 90+ minute. But I'm sure they will perform better when they play against West Ham in the quarter-finals.
I was quite impressed with Qarabag's performance, in the two matches, this team which was not really calculated to be able to give tough resistance to Bayer Leverkusen actually did the opposite, holding a draw in the first match and almost beating Bayer Leverkusen in the second match, it's just that the Bayer players seemed really motivated to continue to do the best for this club because being two goals behind is able to turn things around, although it cannot be denied that competing against a team with 10 players makes it easier for Bayer to continue attacking Qarabag.
Then what about against West Ham, of course they are still the favorites but that doesn't mean it will be easy for Bayer to get past them. West Ham are not as good as Bayer but they still have to be watched out for because in recent seasons they have performed quite well in European competitions so the opportunity for surprising results remains open and Bayer must perform well in these two matches.
