Intro:

Reaction after Bayer Leverkusen beat FC Zenit 2-0 in UEFA Champions League Group C on Wednesday.

Script:

SOUNDBITE (English) Andre Villas-Boas, FC Zenit coach:

"So we come out here not with the result that we wanted. Again, I think the group with the result on the other side between Monaco and Benfica (0-0) represents exactly what we have expected from the group, and I think the classification as well. So it's all very open. We have great responsibility in the game (against Leverkusen) at home to put ourselves back on track and in a good position in this group."

SOUNDBITE (English) Andre Villas-Boas, FC Zenit coach:

"It was two moments. I think, you know, we have to praise Leverkusen of course because they were the most attacking team today, and we couldn't have the ball as much as we wanted in the second half. In the first half, I repeat, I was happy with how things were going. But, you know, I think it is the Champions League. The level of the Champions League is this - with these details that make a difference. And Leverkusen made the most of it."

SOUNDBITE (German) Roger Schmidt, Bayer Leverkusen coach:

"Giulio Donati scored a very nice and very important goal and we have then immediately scored the second goal, which was certainly also very important to give the team a certain calmness. And despite the red card, the team has fought very passionately in order not to concede a goal - and we have succeeded. I think we have seen a very good match with a deserving winner."
