Granit Xhaka: “We should have won the game”

Granit Xhaka was pleased with Bayer Leverkusen’s performance against Bayern Munich, but disappointed with the result.

Bayer Leverkusen created plenty of chances against Bayern Munich on Saturday, but were unable to win the game, which ended in a 0-0 draw.

Granit Xhaka was proud of what he described as a ” huge performance”, but frustrated that Die Werkself couldn’t convert their chances.

“If you look at the game over 90 minutes, it was a huge performance from us,” Xhaka told Sky Germany.

“We had a lot of chances but we didn’t score and that’s disappointing in the end. We should have won.”

By failing to win, Leverkusen missed a golden opportunity to reduce the eight-point gap between themselves and league leaders Bayern at the top of the Bundesliga.

“We have to praise ourselves for the performance, it deserves a lot of respect. We don’t care about the table at the moment,” Xhaka stressed.
