UCL: Late goal by Mukiele helped Bayer beat Inter
The loanee from PSG, Nordi Mukiele, was not Bayer's starting player in the Champions League. But against Inter, Xabi Alonso put the Frenchman in the starting line-up to add reliability at the back. As a result, Mukiele scored the only goal in a difficult match and got his team important three points.
