Arsenal 2-2 Bayern Munich – Champions League quarter-final LIVE: Live score, team news and updates as Leandro Trossard levels things up after Harry Kane gave Germans lead

20:33

GOAL!!! Arsenal 2-2 Bayern (Trossard 76′)

It’s that man again!

20:32, 74′

Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

This match is so stop-start, it’s not flowing at all.

Eric Dier goes down with a sore one but after some time returns to his feet.

It’s all going to plan for Bayern, the lack of flow to this game is suiting them and stunting Arsenal.

20:28, 70′

SUBSTITUTION: Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

This doesn’t look good for Serge Gnabry.

The Bayern goalscorer is down for a while with some sort of muscle problem, he looks uncomfortable.

He can’t continue and Raphael Guerreiro replaces him.

20:26, 68′

GOOD BLOCK! Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

Bayern are really going forward now.

I think the Bavarians sense blood, and harry Kane sees an effort from the edge of the area well blocked by countryman Declan Rice.

Rice needed to be there, that shot could have caused David Raya problems.

20:24, 66′

SUBSTITUTIONS: Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

Bayern have caused Arsenal all sorts of problem on the counter-attack, and Serge Gnabry has fired narrowly over following a quick break.

And now the German Champions have decided to make a change, and it’s a surprising one, Leroy sane is being hooked for Kingsley Coman.

Mikel Arteta rolls the dice as well. Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Jesus have come on for Gabriel Martinelli and Jorginho.

Arteta is going for it!

20:22, 63′

Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

Arsenal fans want a penalty, and so does Mikel Arteta, but the referee waves it away.

Kai Havertz went down under pressure from Matthijs de Ligt, but it was never going to be given.

20:21, 63′

Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

Aadam Patel, Mail Sport, at the Emirates:

Mikel Arteta has just turned to the Arsenal fans to encourage his side. You have to say that anything less than an Arsenal win would be a disappointment for them but right now, they’d even take a draw

20:19

Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

Mikel Arteta calls for more noise from the Emirates, and surprise, surprise, they respond.

However, moments later it’s Bayern that stream forward, with Konrad Laimer having a pop from distance.

It was never troubling David Raya though.

20:17, 59′

Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

Bayern really don’t want to let Arsenal play.

Konrad Laimer takes out Bukayo Saka as he starts to break away, a tactical foul I’d say. I’m surprised it didn’t get a booking.

Once again though, the Gunners waste the set-piece.

20:15, 57′

Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

Lovely, lovely football from Bayern.

The German side link up well before Leon Goretzka has a go from the edge of the area, but drags it wide.

Bayern have been playing in the smash-and-grab mode for most of this match, but that was some proper football!

20:14, 55′

YELLOW CARD: Arsenal 1-2 Bayern (Kane)

Oh, Harry Kane… that’s not very nice!

We know the former Spurs captain doesn’t like Arsenal, but I think it’s a bit far to elbow an opponent.

Kane backs into Gabriel and lays an elbow into the neck of the Arsenal centre-back. Very naughty.

He gets a yellow and the Emirates cheers.

20:09, 51′

Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

Not this time though, Declan Rice floats it over everybody and out for a throw-in.

Arsenal are starting to play football again now, they just need to be patient and use the crowd.

20:08, 50′

Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

The decibel level really has just gone up a level.

Leroy Sane gives away a silly foul and now Arsenal have a very good opportunity from a set-piece.

They are normally lethal from them…

20:06, 48′

Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

Good defending from Leon Goretzka.

The German midfielder puts off Gabriel Martinelli as Kai Havertz floats in a cross to the back post. The offside flag goes up anyway.

What the half-chance does do though is get the Gunners fans singing again.

They had been quiet since the Harry Kane penalty.

20:03, 46′

SECOND HALF: Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

Arsenal are sent out very early and Mikel Arteta has made a change, Oleksandr Zinchenko is on for Jakub Kiwior.

And they get the ball rolling again, how will they respond in this 45 minutes?

A huge second half for Arsenal!

19:58

Crumbling under the pressure?

I said before the game, the Champions League is a different ball game.

Sometimes the best sides in their respective leagues still struggle on European nights, and we are seeing that here.

Bayern’s European pedigree is shining through, they have taken their chances when they have come.

Can Arsenal refind their form and mount a comeback?

19:56

Gnabry loves London!

When Serge Gnabry ran away in celebration I was slightly surprised, but I guess he never really got a game for Arsenal.

What is clear is that he loves London, specifically the north part, he bangs them in for fun there.

Just look at that record!

19:54

WATCH: Kane turns it around for Bayern

Just listen to the silence…

My colleague Aadam Patel who is at the ground stated ‘If you weren’t watching you’d have no idea that Bayern scored’. I have to agree.

Harry Kane was never going to crumble together and with that penalty, he has now scored the most goals of any visiting player at the Emirates.

he loves a goal against the Gunners, enjoy Bayern, and Spurs fans…

19:50

‘Gunners have a solid task on their hands’

Aadam Patel, Mail Sport, at the Emirates:

Arsenal have had 60 per cent possession and eight shots to Bayern’s two but crucially those two have gone in. That’s all that matters for now. Arsenal will want to go to Munich with an advantage and they have a solid task on their hands now.

19:47

HALF-TIME: Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

The whistle is blown for the break and you can hear a small amount of applause.

Arsenal got off to a flyer through Bukayo Saka, and you thought it was set to be a fantastic night for them.

That soon changed. First, a goal on his return to the Emirates for Serge Gnabry, and then Harry Kane netted from the spot to haunt his old rivals.

Arsenal struggled after that, and the Emirates went quiet. The Gunners have a lot to do in the second half.

However, this tie is far from over.

19:46, 46′

ONE added minute

There will be just one minute of stoppage time in the first half.

Not long to find an equaliser then…

19:45, 44′

Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

Arsenal just aren’t looking themselves at the moment.

The Gunners are struggling going forward, Gabriel Martinelli has barely had a kick.

They will need to regroup at half-time, or can they find something before the break?

19:41, 39′

Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

Gabriel Martinelli wipes out Harry Kane and the crowd cheers.

The Gunners fans have been booing Kane all evening, but that won’t matter to him, he’s already had his say.

Arsenal need to get going again themselves, they’re struggling here at the Emirates.

19:39, 38′

Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

Aadam Patel, Mail Sport, at the Emirates:

Arsenal get away with one there. They are getting themselves into all sorts of trouble. They are a better football side than Bayern but Thomas Tuchel’s side have quality within their ranks and look a threat whenever the Gunners lose possession.

19:38, 36′

BRILLIANT TACKLE! Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

What a tackle from Ben White!

Arsenal’s defence is all over the place and suddenly Leroy Sane breaks free.

However, he slows down as he enters the Arsenal area and Ben White gets back to nick it off him.

I thought it was going to be 3-1, I’d even started typing goal, but Sane just didn’t have the metal.

Arsenal are normally so solid, but not tonight.

19:35, 35′

Arsenal 1-2 Bayern

This is a real test of Arsenal’s character now.

You can feel it within the Emirates that they are stunned, after going 1-0 up so quickly, not many expected this.

How will Mikel Arteta’s side respond?

19:32, 32′

GOAL!!! Arsenal 1-2 Bayern (Kane 32′)

Harry Kane stutters and then sends David Raya the wrong way.

He was never going to return to north London without having his say, and he puts Bayern in front.

The Emirates is silenced. Never in doubt.

19:30, 30′

PENALTY TO BAYERN!

That is a penalty all day long.

Leroy Sane is so quick and runs past everyone before being tripped in the area by William Saliba.

The ball is in the hands of Harry Kane…

19:29, 27′

Arsenal 1-1 Bayern

What happened there.

Arsenal cause chaos in the area from a corner and Bayern can’t get it away initially.

After everybody has a kick at the ball it’s eventually in the hands of Manual Neuer.

That was like an under 7s match when everyone is going for the ball.

19:24, 22′

Arsenal 1-1 Bayern

Arsenal have responded well to the equaliser.

The Gunners defenders seem to be the ones pushing for goals, Jakub Kiwior has just sent a header straight into the hands of manual Neuer.

The life has been sucked out of the Emirates with that goal though.

19:21, 20′

Arsenal 1-1 Bayern

Aadam Patel, Mail Sport, at the Emirates:

Wow. No one expected that. And there’s a proper silence around the ground. It’s a goal Arsenal could and should have avoided and Mikel Arteta will be fuming.

19:18, 18′

GOAL!!! Arsenal 1-1 Bayern (Gnabry 18′)

A sucker punch from nowhere!

Serge Gnabry returns to where it all started to haunt his old club.

Harry Kane sends a beautiful pass into Leon Goretzka who slips in Gnabry to slide past David Raya via a deflection.

A lovely goal, but the first poor defending I have seen from Arsenal in a long time.

GAME ON!

19:18, 16′

BIG SAVE! Arsenal 1-0 Bayern

Oh, Ben White! So close to an Arsenal second.

Kai Havertz slides through Ben White who is through on goal, but one-on-one with Manuel Neuer sends it straight at him.

I wonder if White has a nosebleed, that’s the last person you’d expect to be in that scenario.

A big chance.

19:16, 14′

Arsenal 1-0 Bayern

Aadam Patel, Mail Sport, at the Emirates:

We spoke to a lot of Arsenal fans before the game asking them to compare Bukayo Saka and Phil Foden. Most mentioned that Saka needed to do it more for Arsenal on big occasions to reach that Foden level. Well, there’s one for starters

19:12, 12′

GOAL!!! Arsenal 1-0 Bayern (Saka 12′)

Arsenal have lift-off!

Of course, it had to be Bukayo Saka, and what a finish that is as he bends it past Manuel Neuer into the bottom corner.

It started with a lovely pass from Martin Odegaard, and then Saka did the rest.

The Emirates goes bezerk, it’s deafening in there.

What a start!

19:11, 9′

YELLOW CARD: Arsenal 0-0 Bayern (Davies)

That’s a nasty one, but I’m surprised it’s worth a yellow card.

Alphonso Davies accidentally catches Bukayo Saka on the heel and receives a booking for it. It means he will be suspended for the second leg.

The crowd enjoyed seeing the card come out, that’s for sure.

19:09, 7′

Arsenal 0-0 Bayern

Arsenal have thrown their first punch, and only just narrowly missed it.

Bayern give the ball away and Arsenal pounce, Gabriel Martinelli picks up the ball from Kai Havertz and fires a ferocious shoot slightly wide of the mark.

The Brazilian forward then calls for more noise from the crowd, and they oblige.

19:05

Arsenal 0-0 Bayern

I can tell you the Gunners have not got off to a flying start…

It’s been all Bayern in truth. The visitors look very comfortable passing it around and biding their time.

No chances to report as of yet.
