Napoli held to a draw by Copenhagen, Bayer Leverkusen beaten by Olympiacos
 Az Napoli were held to a draw by Copenhagen, while Bayer Leverkusen lost to Olympiacos in their seventh Champions League match on Tuesday local time.

Last season's Italian League champions Napoli had to settle for a 1-1 draw when they were hosted by Danish representatives Copenhagen at Parken Stadium, Copenhagen, according to UEFA records.

Napoli could have taken the lead through Scott McTominay, but Copenhagen equalized thanks to Jordan Larsson.

Copenhagen actually had to play with 10 men from the 35th minute because Thomas Delaney received a red card from the referee, but they were at least able to secure a point.

This result puts Napoli in 23rd place in the Champions League standings with eight points from seven matches, ahead of Copenhagen in 24th place on goal difference.

Both teams still have a chance to qualify for the Champions League round of 16 via the play-offs, but Napoli and Copenhagen must win their final league matches to avoid being affected by other results.

Meanwhile, Bayer Leverkusen lost 0-2 when visiting the headquarters of Greek representatives Olympiacos at the Kariskakis Stadium, Piraeus.

In this match, Olympiacos managed to secure a victory thanks to goals from Costinha and Mehdi Taremi, even though Bayer Leverkusen actually dominated the match.

This victory moved Olympiacos up to 22nd place in the Champions League standings with eight points from eight, just one point behind Bayer Leverkusen in 19th place.
