Trossard rescues Arsenal in Champions League clash with Bayern Munich

Leandro Trossard came off the bench to rescue Arsenal and keep their Champions League quarter-final clash with Bayern Munich in the balance.

It was a move that paid off, with Trossard sweeping an equaliser home after Arsenal picked the Bayern defence apart. Arsenal were denied a last-gasp penalty when Manuel Neuer appeared to bring down Saka, with the game ending a draw. Here, Mirror Football looks at the biggest talking points from the first leg, with everything still to play for.

Arsenal may well be disappointed not to have turned their dominance into a win. But given they were behind for so long, the Gunners will be relieved to see the scores level heading into next week's reverse fixture.Starboy Saka Fresh from scoring in the win over Brighton on Saturday, Bukayo Saka quickly made it two successive games with a goal. Saka was up against Alphonso Davies on his side of the pitch and ensured it was a difficult evening for the Canadian.

Gnabry returns to haunt Gunners While it was Saka who was starring for Arsenal, both of Bayern's wingers caused problems for the hosts. First, Serge Gnabry, who spent four years with the Gunners, came back to haunt his former club. Kane torments again This was Harry Kane's first match in London since he left Arsenal's fierce rivals Tottenham last summer. Before departing, the striker had scored 14 goals in 19 games against the Gunners.

Arteta vindicated It was mostly a frustrating night for Arsenal but many of their problems were all of their own making. The Gunners dominated possession, enjoying 61 percent of the ball, but struggled to do much of note with it up against Bayern's stubborn defence.
