Battling Werkself lose 2-0 in Athens

It was a disappointing night in Athens: The Werkself lost 2-0 away to Olympiacos on Matchday 7 in the league phase of the 2025/26 UEFA Champions League campaign. In a match that was intense and fiery from the outset, the high-pressing home side made the better start and took the lead through Costinha on two minutes. Although the Werkself had a number of chances to equalise, the clinical Greek side increased the lead to 2-0 shortly before half-time (45+1’). In the second half, Leverkusen once again gave their all and showed total commitment but, despite their best efforts, the Black and Reds were unable to break down the Olympiacos defence on the night.

Building our future

Building our future

The Bayer 04 Campus is to become a beacon for the development and training of men, women and youth footballers and set standards in strategy, innovation and sustainability. The club is creating the conditions to establish itself at the top of European football in the medium and long term and to remain a sporting flagship of the Rhineland. The planned Talent House is also an important building block for the club’s future. Planning for both projects is well advanced. With these investments in the future, Bayer 04 is also preparing for the period from 2031, when the upgrading of the A1 motorway will make it necessary to reorganise the site at the BayArena.
