Olympiakos saved their chances of qualifying for the Champions League playoffs by securing a strong home victory over Bayer Leverkusen with a 2:0 result in the match of the 7th round of the main round of the tournament. The match took place at the Georgios Karaiskakis stadium near Piraeus.

The Lords opened the rakhunok already on the 2nd winter of the sustricha. After serving from Kutovoy at Vikonanny Rodineya Costinha, having won the fight in the backfield and heading the ball to the net, Blasviha wins. For Zahisnik Tse Buv the first goal in two years.

Bayer managed to win quickly and create a number of unsafe moments, but Olympiakos goalkeeper Konstantinos Tsolakis showed a brilliant performance, who repeatedly defended the team after shots from Bade, Vazquez and Grimaldo.

The key moment came at the end of the first half: after Retsos was overrun by Rodina, they organized a counterattack, and Mehdi Taremi, with a forceful strike, gave the Greek club the advantage - 2:0.

In the other half, Bayer Volodyov hit the ball and tried to turn the suspense, but the defense of Olympiakos was reliable and self-evident. Retsos stopped the guests' attacks several times, and Tsolakis again helped the team after the exit of Chic last night.



The Olympiakos side has achieved a significant victory and interrupted Bayer's streak without defeat in matches against clubs not from the top 5 European leagues. The Greek team climbed to 22nd place in the tournament table and is one more point ahead of Bayer, maintaining a real chance of reaching the playoffs before the final round.
