Leipzig - Rangers game didn't end surprisingly to be honest. Leipzig just found the winning goal quite late in the game but they still won by 1-0 which was the most important part for them. It is a decent advantage for them before the second leg. However, the other game ended by a very surprising result to me. Because I was feeling confident that West Ham would beat Eintracht Frankfurt home and capture a decent advantage as well. But the opposite case happened and Frankfurt became victorious by 2-1. This is a huge advantage for them before the game in Frankfurt but there is still nothing finished for West Ham of course. We will see next week how much they want to reach the finale.
Leipzig played at home and dominated the match, even to control the ball up to 71%, it is not commensurate with the results of the match.
Leipzig should have won by a larger goal difference. Even though Leipzig failed to show their best performance, the victory that Leipzig got was
very important. So in the second leg, Leipzig can play more relaxed, because they are already superior on aggregate goals, even so, Leipzig's
position is not safe. So the match in the second leg of Leipzig must be more careful, My suggestion is that Leipzig take the initiative to attack first
to be able to score a goal in the early minutes, in order to make Rangers panic and play more openly.
For the Leipzig vs Rangers match, it was according to my predictions, nothing surprising, and indeed Leipzig deserved to win. But unlike
the West Ham vs Frankfurt match, I was quite surprised that Frankfurt who played away could beat West Ham. Hopefully West Ham can win
in the second leg match and can qualify for the final, because for me it is less interesting if two Bundesliga teams enter the final.
