Bayer Leverkusen must play with the same intensity that helped beat Borussia Dortmund on Saturday if they are to give themselves a chance of making the Champions League last 16 at Real Sociedad on Tuesday, coach Sami Hyypia said.
.
Leverkusen's 1-0 success at Dortmund cemented their hold on second place in the Bundesliga and they need leaders Manchester United to avoid defeat at home to Shakhtar Donetsk in Tuesday's other Group A game if they are to progress in Europe's elite club competition.
.
"We got a big confidence boost in Dortmund and now we want to make use of the tailwind," Hyypia told a news conference on Monday.
.
"The key will be to bring the same level of intensity to the match," added the former Finland and Liverpool defender.
.
Leverkusen (seven points) will be through with a victory at eliminated Sociedad (one) in San Sebastian if Shakhtar (eight) fail to win at United (11).

Bayer Leverkusen will also want to qualify for the second round so i dont blame the coach.
