Error logging into website with selenium webdriver

I know that there are many questions with the same problem but none of them have helped me. This is my script. I am trying to login into the willhaben website. I am from austria that is why I am using willhaben.at Python version 3.5.4 Selenium version 3.8.0 PhantomJS version 2.1

#need some of the libraries for later code
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup as soup
import requests
import sys
import re
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

input("If ready press 'enter'")

loginurl = 'https://www.willhaben.at/iad/?islogout=true&logoff.y=10'

chrome_options = Options()
chrome_options.add_argument('disable-infobars')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path="C:\\Users\\laure\\Downloads\\chromedriver_win32\\chromedriver.exe", chrome_options=chrome_options, service_args=['--ignore-ssl-errors=true', '--ssl-protocol=any'])


USERNAME = 'notgonnagiveit :)'
PASSWORD = 'notgonnagiveit'

driver.get(loginurl)

element = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(
        EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, '//*[@id="username"]'))
    )

username = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="username"]')
password = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="password"]')

password.send_keys(PASSWORD)
username.send_keys(USERNAME)

driver.quit()

Error:

Try to use :

username = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@id='username']")
password = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@id='password']")
