West Ham 1-1 Bayer Leverkusen (1-3 agg.): Jeremie Frimpong’s late equaliser on the night sealed the German side’s spot in the Europa League semi-finals - but they were given a scare by the Hammers
West Ham were knocked out of the Europa League, despite threatening to end Bayer Leverkusen’s season-long unbeaten run in a 1-1 draw. David Moyes’ side went into the second leg of the quarter-final tie at the London Stadium needing to overturn a two-goal deficit, after they were beaten in Germany a week ago, and they threatened to do just that. Michail Antonio pulled one back in a brilliant first-half performance from West Ham, as Leverkusen, crowned Bundesliga champions on Sunday, looked increasingly rattled.
Mohamed Salah’s early penalty raised hopes of an unlikely comeback.
