The Emirates Stadium once again belonged to a Belgian. At the end of the cracker against Bayern Munich, Leandro Trossard provided a vital equalizer for Arsenal. A world of difference when our compatriot goes to Munich in the second leg. On the other hand, Harry Kane was also able to make his mark against Arsenal.

One of the openers in the quarter-finals of the Champions League was a match between Arsenal and Bayern Munich. In an atmospheric Emirates Stadium, it was the visitors who started best.
German possession of the ball yielded little. Arsenal, with Trossard on the bench, responded and scored thanks to Bukayo Saka. On a pass from Ben White, he curled the ball into the far corner.
Not much later, the same White missed a great chance to make it 2-0. He kicked the ball weakly into Neuer’s hands.
Immediately afterwards a goal was scored, but on the other side. Arsenal were playing with a bit too much confidence at the back.
By losing the ball, Goretzka was able to give a through ball to Serge Gnabry, who finished sliding flawlessly.
Efficient Bayern Munich survives for a long time
Arsenal continued to do what they were doing, namely attacking together. This caused problems at the back.
Sané ran towards goal in the box, but was blocked incorrectly by Saliba. Harry Kane, ex-Tottenham, was allowed to kick the penalty and did not miss.
He waited until Raya went to the left and calmly kicked to the right. Simple, but successful.
Arsenal’s biggest danger came from the right flank. Saka and Odegaard caused problems for the German defense.
That was both at the end of the first half and in the first fifteen minutes after halftime. There were no real opportunities.
Saving angels Jesus and Trossard
Only halfway through the second half did Mikel Arteta make an attacking change. He brought not only Leandro Trossard, but also Gabriel Jesus onto the field.
In the meantime, Bayern Munich knew better how to absorb Arsenal, so they had to look for opportunities after the break.
Trossard and Jesus were on the field for 10 minutes when they made it 2-2. The Red Devil initiated the attack himself and Saka immediately passed the ball to Jesus.
The Brazilian cut down a few Bayern players and found a free Leandro Trossard. He placed the ball neatly next to Neuer.
In the rest of the game, Bayern Munich was the most dangerous. Coman wanted to deflect the ball into the goal at the first post, but he kicked the post.
Just before the whistle, Bukayo Saka (Arsenal) claimed a penalty, but he himself ran into goalkeeper Neuer’s loose leg. The match ended 2-2 and everything will be decided next week in Munich.
Phase by phase
END: Trossard makes it 2-2
In a pleasant game of football, no one comes out on top. Arsenal took the most initiative, but conceded two goals in the first half. After the break things became a bit more difficult, but eventually Leandro Trossard scored after a nice individual action by Gabriel Jesus.
No penalty for Arsenal
Bukayo Saka tries to go past Neuer, but goes down theatrically. The Englishman himself ran into the goalkeeper’s leg.
Trossard has scored an important goal, but is not playing a great game. He now loses the ball in a promising attack.
5 – extra time
An extra 5 minutes will be added.
Against the post!
Bayern Munich comes close to the winning goal. Coman kicks the ball through Raya’s legs and into the post.
Immediately yellow for Partey
Musiala seems to be building an attack, but Thomas Partey won’t let that happen. He tackles him down.
Headache for Trossard
The Red Devil gets a tap from Matthijs De Ligt. He can continue playing football straight away.
Is Partey organizing a party?
Kai Havertz didn’t score tonight, but he played a great game. Thomas Partey is his replacement.
This match might not end in a draw. Bayern Munich is still looking for the goal and Arsenal wants to take the ball away as quickly as possible. Men like Havertz and Saka are also fully involved in defending.
Cracked shot Coman
Substitute Kingsley Coman creates a goal opportunity. The Frenchman’s shot goes towards the short corner, but is easy for Raya to collect.
Bayern Munich tries to find some peace by tapping the ball around at the back. Arsenal press high, but not rashly.
Trossard puts the Gunners back on level terms.
GOAL: Trossard scores!
Trossard makes it 2-2 on a pass from Gabriel Jesus. After quick passes from Trossard and Saka, Jesus gains possession of the ball. The Brazilian cleverly swings past a few defenders and lays off for Trossard. The Red Devil takes a controlled kick into the far corner.
We are already in the last quarter of the match. Arsenal gives the impression that it has the match under control, but it still has to make up the deficit and therefore create chances.
