Bayer Leverkusen head coach Roger Schmidt bemoaned a "brutal" ending as his side conceded a stoppage-time equaliser at Monaco on Tuesday.
A Champions League game of few chances appeared to have been won by Javier Hernandez, who netted for the visitors with just 17 minutes remaining at Stade Louis II.
"It's a pity," he told a news conference. "We played very well, the lead was deserved and a win would have been deserved as well.
"However, football can be brutal sometimes and we have to accept that."
"The game was balanced - I looked at the stats," he said. "All the important figures are balanced.
"Taking a point having been behind is always a positive. The team reacted after the goal and the substitutes brought something.
"Glik's goal is as important as the assist of [Guido] Carrillo, who won his duel. Glik is a player with a strong personality. He has a positive attitude and works well with the others."
"Without a doubt, it was one of the best goals of my life," he told beIN Sports.
