Arsenal entertained Bayern Munich at the Emirates Stadium earlier tonight as they hoped to secure a victory at home in the UEFA Champions League. The Gunners made a quick start to the game and scored the opening goal in the 12th minute when Bukayo Saka found the back of the net. However, Serge Gnabry equalised for the visitors just six minutes later before Harry Kane put Bayern Munich 2-1 up from the penalty spot in the 32nd minute. Mikel Arteta‘s men were trailing 2-1 at the half-time interval.
Leandro Trossard equalised for the Gunners in the 76th minute as the match finished with Arsenal earning a hard-fought 2-2 draw at home.
