Trossard Strikes Late As Arsenal Earn Vital Draw Against Bayern Munich

...

 Roared on by a fervent home crowd, Arsenal made the perfect start in their UEFA Champions League quarter-final first-leg encounter against Bayern Munich on Tuesday. Bukayo Saka’s superb first-half strike put the hosts in front before defensive errors crept in to ensure that their lead was short-lived.

Bayern swiftly equalised through former Arsenal man Serge Gnabry, before taking the lead from the penalty spot courtesy of typical Arsenal punisher Harry Kane. Undeterred, Mikel Arteta’s side upped the tempo in the second half, and their persistence paid off when Leandro Trossard slotted home the equaliser in the 76th minute, following a clever combination with fellow substitute Gabriel Jesus.

The match remained finely poised in the closing stages, with both sides probing for a late winner. Bayern came closest, as Kingsley Coman’s audacious flick struck the post, but the match ultimately ended all square, setting up an intriguing second leg next week.

With the tie evenly balanced, the two European heavyweights will battle it out for a place in the Champions League semi-finals, promising another captivating encounter between these illustrious clubs.
