Before their VBL-CC duels, which the #B04eSports team played in the evening ahead of the UCL clash against Paris Saint-Germain, the Leverkusen gamers met up with the PSG eSports players for joint activities including an exhibition match live at the Fanwelt. The PSG squad includes some high-calibre players: Brice Masson, for example, finished second at the FC 25 World Cup in Saudi Arabia. Ilian Bouchi reached the top eight in the eChampions League in EA FC 25.
The eSports players also produced content together for the social media channels, enjoyed lunch together and watched the evening match. The PSG players also watched the Leverkusen team's VBL CC duels and followed their progress to the offline round of the first showdown. Click HERE for the report.

Together with the PSG eSports team and Team Vitality, we have managed to bring the communities of both clubs together and create added value for both clubs."
