SOCCER: Leverkusen coach says 'game on' ahead of Arsenal clash

Bayer Leverkusen manager Kasper Hjulmand said its 'game on' ahead of their UEFA Champions League last 16 second leg away to Arsenal in London on Tuesday (March 17).

Leverkusen came away with a 1-1 draw in the first leg last Wednesday after conceding a late penalty, a result Hjulmand said has lifted the team.

"It does send a signal to all of us that we are able to compete at a high level," he told reporters on the eve (March 16) of the match.
