Match Info
Bayer 04 Leverkusen produced a superb away performance to defeat Manchester City 2-0 at the Etihad Stadium in a UEFA Champions League group stage match on November 26, 2025. The victory was a significant upset and a testament to the tactical discipline of the German side, handing Pep Guardiola's team a rare home defeat in Europe. Leverkusen executed a perfect game plan, soaking up City's possession and striking with lethal efficiency on the counter-attack. They took the lead against the run of play in the first half and then doubled their advantage early in the second with a devastating break, leaving City's defense exposed. Manchester City, despite having over 70% possession, struggled to break down Leverkusen's compact defensive block and failed to register a shot on target of real note. The defeat created a three-way tie at the top of the group, making the final matchday decisive. Leverkusen's manager called it a perfect performance, while Guardiola admitted his team lacked intensity and creativity.
