As the Bayer Leverkusen players were celebrating, Sergio Conceicao called Otavio and Shoya Nakajima from the bench to quickly begin warming up as he had to quickly make some changes to the game plan before the game got out of hand.
Thus before the Porto team kicked off, the assistant referee held up the board, signaling for substitution.
Jesus Corona and Mattheus Uribe on seeing their numbers being displayed in red knew that their time was up on the pitch and they quickly jogged down to the sidelines.
Shoya Nakajima was going to be coming on for Mattheus Uribe while Otavio would be coming on for Jesus Corona.
'Hopefully, they can breathe life into our attacks that are coming to a dead end every time,' Sergio Conceicao thought to himself as he watched the new substitutes run to take their positions on the pitch.
