Carles Martínez shifts the message after Bayer’s 2-0

Bayer Leverkusen has already moved on after its 2-0 win over NK Celje, a match that prompted plenty of internal scrutiny about what didn’t go well. According to kicker, the club’s focus on Wednesday was mainly on those negatives.

Turning to positives

Two days later, Carles Martínez chose to frame things differently. He said that “so werden wir viele Spiele gewinnen” — essentially that they can start winning consistently if they keep building on what worked.

The takeaway from kicker is that the squad wants to correct issues without losing confidence. The report doesn’t provide further tactical specifics or name upcoming opponents, but the message is unmistakable: after the NK Celje game, the intention is to double down on the good and translate it into more results.
