Bayer Leverkusen and Agdam drew 2:2 (0:2) in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Europa League at Karabakh Agdam in Azerbaijan. Florian Wirtz and Patrik Schick saved the draw after by far the worst half of the season and thus a good starting position for the second leg on Thursday.
The old but atmospheric arena in Baku, once called the Josef Stalin Stadium and then the Vladimir Lenin Stadium, now bears the name of Tofiq Bahramov, the linesman who saw the ball behind the line at the 1966 World Cup final.
