Atletico Madrid 2-2 Bayer Leverkusen: Yannick Carrasco misses a 98TH MINUTE penalty as Diego Simeone AND Xabi Alonso’s men are knocked out of the Champions League… after Callum Hudson-Odoi scored his first goal for the German side

  • Atletico and Leverkusen were both knocked out of the Champions League 
  • The LaLiga and Bundesliga side played out a 2-2 draw in Madrid on Wednesday
  • Yannick Carrasco missed a chance to win it with a 98th minute penalty  
  • Callum Hudson-Odoi netted his first strike since joining Leverkusen on loan

Atletico Madrid and Bayer Leverkusen were both eliminated from the Champions League on Wednesday night – with Yannick Carrasco missing the chance to win it as he missed a 98th minute penalty. 

Diego Simeone‘s side had to win against the German outfit to have any chance of progressing into the last-16 of Europe’s biggest competition but had to settle for a point after Carrasco’s miss – with Xabi Alonso’s men earlier pegging them back. 

Carrasco had opened the scoring in the first half before Moussa Diaby and a first goal for on-loan Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi flipped the game on its head before the interval. Rodrigo de Paul struck just after half time to draw it level – and neither side could force a winner.
