Vincent Kompany insists that his team from Bayern Munich will continue to be geared to end the job after they were 3-0 in the first leg of the 16th round of the Champions League over their domestic rivals.
Harry Kane scored one sides of a strike by Jamal Musiala twice – as a Company’s team took an important step towards the last eight of the European Elite Club competition.
For Leverkusen it turned out to be a hot evening in the Allianz Arena for Xabi Alonso and Co., which was reinforced by Nordi Mukieles Red Map of Nordi Mukiele when the German champions stayed with a mountain for climbing in the second stage next week.

Bavaria may occur itself that they have not increased their advantage after Palhinha missed a wonderful chance to make him four in the second half.
Another reason for concern about an otherwise gratifying evening for Kompany was the injury to the goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, who had to be replaced after suffering a calf pollution while celebrating the second goal.
“We did a lot of things right, otherwise you can’t beat such a team,” said the Bayern boss after the game.
“We have to repeat what we did well next week. It is not the time for praise. Of course, the boys can be happy, but we will switch our focus on Bochum and then to Tuesday.
“It is only the first half, we stay completely concentrated on the second leg.
“It was the most important game of the season, but hopefully we will get more important games.
“We stay calm as always and we have shown that we are always ready.”
Bayern travel to Leverkusen to the second leg on Tuesday, with the winners playing either inter or Feyenoord in the quarter -finals.
After a comfortable victory in Rotterdam, the Italian team takes a 2-0 advantage into the second leg.
