European roundup: Leverkusen grab late winner to deny Gladbach in thriller
Wirtz scores rebound after 100th-minute penalty savedLigue 1: Paris Saint-Germain put six past Montpellier
Bayer Leverkusen were pushed all the way by Borussia Mönchengladbach, who fought back from 2-0 down to level at 2-2 before Xabi Alonso’s defending Bundesliga champions found a trademark late goal to claim all three points.
Florian Wirtz scored the winner in the 100th minute amid torrential rain at Borussia-Park, getting to the rebound first after Jonas Omlin had saved his penalty. The Gladbach keeper went the right way but could only push the ball back into play, allowing Wirtz to fire home his second goal of the game.
