Leverkusen Duo on Target in Europa League Clash

Wirtz and Andrich Score to Give Leverkusen Advantage

Bayer Leverkusen took a 2-0 lead over AS Roma in the Europa League thanks to goals from Florian Wirtz and Robert Andrich. Wirtz opened the scoring in the 26th minute with a clinical finish, while Andrich doubled the advantage just before the hour mark. The victory gives Leverkusen a comfortable cushion heading into the second leg in Rome.

Wirtz has been in impressive form for Leverkusen this season, scoring eight goals in all competitions. The 19-year-old midfielder is one of the most promising young players in Europe and is attracting interest from several top clubs.

Andrich, meanwhile, has also been a key player for Leverkusen this season. The 27-year-old defensive midfielder has scored three goals in all competitions and has been a solid performer in the center of the park.

Leverkusen will be hoping to build on their first-leg advantage when they travel to Rome for the second leg on March 16. If they can secure a positive result in Italy, they will be well-placed to reach the quarter-finals of the Europa League.
