In addition to Volland, Schreck and Bailey, Heiko Herrlich sent six of the remaining pros onto the pitch: Goalkeeper Tomasz Kucz, Lucas Alario, Karim Bellarabi, Dominik Kohr, Mitchell Weiser and Sven Bender. The 29-year-old, who missed yesterday's training session due to a pre-arranged examination of his right ankle at a specialist in Munich, was able to play the whole game. The team also included the U19 players Jan Boller and Ismael Devici.

The team managed by the coaching duo Markus von Ahlen and Iraklis Metaxas was made up of U19 and U17 players. The match was played behind closed doors.

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.
