Bayer Leverkusen beat OFI 0-2 in Liga Europa, a one-sided Europa League result even though the individual goals could not be verified. The official scoreline is the source of truth: OFI 0, Bayer Leverkusen 2.

Match Summary

OFI hosted Bayer Leverkusen and spent the night trying to live with a side that created almost everything. The first verified interruption came in the 25th minute, when Aleix Garcia was shown a yellow card. That caution did not open the game for the hosts. OFI still had no goal, and Leverkusen remained the team asking the questions through the rest of the first half.

The second half kept the same shape. Scorers and minutes for the two away goals were not confirmed against the official 0-2 score, so this recap does not list them. What was confirmed is how the match finished. Bayer Leverkusen collected another yellow in the 79th minute. Edmond Tapsoba was booked in the 86th, and OFI's Borja González followed in the 87th. Those late cards added stoppages without changing the result. Leverkusen closed out a 0-2 win on the road.

Key Moments

Aleix Garcia's yellow in the 25th minute mattered because it arrived while Bayer Leverkusen already had the run of the match. A booking that early can give a home side a chance to reset. OFI could not use it, and the visitors stayed in front on the official scoreboard.

The late cautions mattered for the opposite reason. Edmond Tapsoba's yellow in the 86th minute and Borja González's a minute later came when OFI still needed two goals. The cards marked a stretched ending, not a shift in who was winning.

The chance gap was the real swing. Expected goals of 3.09 for Bayer Leverkusen and 0.23 for OFI show why a 0-2 away win never looked fragile. The visitors took 33 shots and put 15 on target. OFI had 6 shots and 2 on target.
