Arsenal 2-2 Bayern Munich: Champions League quarter-final, first leg

Harry Kane got himself on the scoresheet at one of his happier hunting grounds but it’s all to play for between both sides at the Allianz Arena“The game had different moments,” he tells TNT. “We started really well, we were dominant, didn’t concede anything. We scored a really good goal and after that is the moment of the game when Ben is in front of Neuer and if it was 2-0 it would have been a very different game.

With a touch of his left foot, Saka touched the ball to the goalkeeper’s left, before kicking out with his right to ensure heavy contact was made with his left leg and Neuer’s right. I think it was the correct call but wouldn’t have been even remotely surprised if it had been given. Gooners are wlecome to disagree but it was nowherefans could deny Bayern’s penalty but Saka was looking for it?” writes Nick Archard. “Bayern’s was definitely a penalty and Arsenal’s at the end was even more so.

“They’re having a good go at trying to win the league and they’re a really good team. We changed our plan a little bit today in terms of how we defended without the ball bec ause they keep the ball well and find the spaces but of course we know they’re a top team.”Serge Gnabry and a Harry Kane penalty had overturned Bukayo Saka’s early strike but substitutes Gabriel Jesus and Leandro Trossard combined to restore parity for Arsenal ahead of next week’s second leg.

Are you pleased with that result: “I think not pleased but when you’re 2-1 down at half-time you take the draw at the end. I think we started so well in the first half, the first 15 or 20 minutes were so good, we could have scored two or three. At the end of the day it’s a draw and we take it and we have to finish it off.”Mikel Arteta was quickly on to the pitch to complain about Arsenal being denied a late penalty but he can argue all he likes, they’re not going to get one now.
