The fight for "Champions" league spots gains momentum, and on Saturday evening, Berlin's "Union" played a 2:2 draw with Leverkusen's "Bayer" team. The hosts were the first to break through. In the 38th minute, after a rebounded ball, the first rushed to the rebounded ball and scored a shot into the lower left corner of the goal, taking his team ahead. However, their lead was short-lived, as Leverkusen's goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky saved the shot but Grisha Promel scored a goal "into the corner" with a second shot. Inspired by the equalizing goal, the guests started the second half excellently. In the 50th minute, Grisha Promel scored a double to put his team in the lead. However, the hosts managed to come back in the very end of the match. In the 84th minute, after a pass from Karim Bellarabi, Jonathan Tah headed the ball into the goal. There are not many mistakes to secure places in the "Champions" league. After these matches, "Bayer" and "Union" respectively occupy the fifth and seventh places, but there are only 5 points separating the third-placed "Hoffenheim" and the ninth-placed "Koln". It is worth mentioning that "Koln" and the seventh-placed "Eintracht" have played one game less, so we can expect intense battles for places in the most prestigious European tournaments until the end of the season.
