In a UEFA Champions League match, Stade Brestois 29 and Bayer Leverkusen played to a 1-1 draw, with Florian Wirtz scoring for Leverkusen and Pierre Lees-Melou equalizing for Brest. This result keeps both teams unbeaten in the competition and marks an impressive adaptation for Brest in their first Champions League campaign, following their remarkable rise from financial struggles and amateur leagues. Leverkusen was without striker Victor Boniface due to a car accident, and substitute Amine Adli was injured during the game. Both teams now have seven points, trailing Aston Villa in the group standings. Despite the draw, Brest continues to defy expectations with their performance on the European stage, playing their home games at Roudourou due to inadequate facilities at their home ground.
