ARSENAL AND BAYERN SERVE UP UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE EPIC
Arsenal and Bayern Munich served up an epic 2-2 UEFA Champions League quarter-final draw at the Emirates as home substitute Leandro Trossard struck late on to earn the Premier League leaders a breathless draw.
Bukayo Saka swerved home a brilliant opener on 12 minutes for the home side before the struggling German champions – who are 16 points behind Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga – hit back strongly as Serge Gnabry punished some poor defending to equalise with an opportunistic finish on 18 minutes.

LATE DRAMA AS FINAL WHISTLE BLOWS!
Neuer races out to meet Saka, who goes to ground. Wild appeals for a penalty, but it looks like Saka ran into the knee of the Bayern keeper. And the final whistle sounds. Looks like that was the right call in the replays. It ends 2-2 after the first leg. What a match.

ALMOST THE WINNER FOR BAYERN

SAKA WITH A SUPER CROSS
A very dangerous ball from the pass by Odegaard. Looked like that cross might even creep into the net with Neuer watching it flash past him. Still 2-2.

BAYERN WILL TAKE WHAT THEY'VE GOT
The German side will surely fancy the job back in Munich if they can get out of London with a 2-2 draw. They are keeping the ball very well indeed. Taking the sting out of the game. Game management so, so important at this level.

WATCH: ARSENAL LEVEL UP AGAINST BAYERN
Mikel Arteta gets the reaction he wants from two key substitutions. Really is a delightful piece of creative play from the Gunners.

SUPERB PLAY BY ARSENAL TO HIT BACK
Bayern Munich looked very, very comfortable until that finish from Leandro Trossard brings the home fans back to life. This is what football should be about. Fearless attacking play from the Gunners.

GOAL! (TROSSARD) ARSENAL 2-2 BAYERN MUNICH
Well, never a dull moment in the UEFA Champions League. Gabriel Jesus with some blistering play to provide the space and square pass for Trossard to smash the ball low and hard into the Bayern net. And suddenly Arsenal are back in business at 2-2. Phew!

CITY LEVEL IN MADRID VIA FODEN MAGIC
Quite a contest in that quarter-final. The winner of that match will face Arsenal or Bayern in the semi-finals. Which looks like being Bayern at the moment, but things can change quickly. As Phil Foden has illustrated.

KANE AND ODEGAARD IN A WRESTLING MATCH
Well, that is taking a huge risk from the corner with both men grappling with each other off the ball. In the age of VAR that is playing a dangerous game if you are the Arsenal captain.

KANE HAS A GO AT THE ARSENAL GOAL
He fires a shot just wide of the target. Comes off Rice. So will be a corner for the visitors, who are set to make another change.

BAYERN SPEED TOWARDS THE HOME GOAL
Another very menacing piece of play by Bayern Munich as Davies and Gnabry both race down the Arsenal right flank. Gnabry runs out of road before cracking the ball well over the bar. Decent move again though.

HAVERTZ GOES TO GROUND IN THE BAYERN BOX
Looking for some sort of touch under the watch of Joshua Kimmich. A clear dive. Havertz is fortunate to escape a booking for a spot of cheating.

BAYERN MUNICH DOING BAYERN MUNICH THINGS
This is what you expect from Bayern Munich in Europe. A no-nonsense display, willing to dig in and then play on the counter attack. Arsenal seem to be running out of ideas. Wonder if they would accept a draw here? Not their best evening of the season. So far of course.
62'
HOW GLORIOUS IS THIS PIECE OF SKILL?
Another Arsenal free-kick comes to nothing. Perhaps they should ask Manuel Neuer in the visiting goal how it should be done.
