LEVERKUSEN, Germany (AP) — Struggling Bayer Leverkusen left it late to earn a 2-0 win over Atlético Madrid in their Champions League group-stage game.

Leverkusen coach Gerardo Seoane had been coming under increasing pressure, especially after the 1-0 loss at Club Brugge in their Group B opening game last week. But Andrich finally made the breakthrough in the 84th minute and Diaby sealed the win on a counterattack in the 87th.
