Minute-by-minute report: How will the first ever meeting between these two sides fare in Leverkusen? Join Will Unwin
West Ham make it to the edge of the Leverkusen box where Paqueta is dispossessed.Wirtz takes a lovely touch in the box and spins to shoot at Fabianski. The goalkeeper holds but the German is offside anyway.Adli is the latest to roll on the turf after being touched by a West Ham player. In fairness, it is not a great challenge because Emerson’s studs roll over the ball and onto the Leverkusen man’s legs. It is accidental but does not look great.Grimaldo wins Leverkusen a corner on the left.
West Ham are performing extremely well. They are operating with a low block and everyone is doing their role exceptionally.I think everyone expected them to be two or three goals down by now... Adli is fouled by Paqueta who is booking, keeping him out of the second leg. A melee ensues and VAR take a look in case it is worthy of a red, which it is not. Paqueta still moans at the referee for some reason.Antonio is working hard to chase everything he can but it will be a thankless task.
