Overview
- Jurrien Timber headed in Bukayo Saka’s corner on 22 minutes before 17-year-old Lennart Karl equalised, the first goal Arsenal have conceded in this Champions League campaign.
- Riccardo Calafiori made an instant impact off the bench with a driven cross that Noni Madueke converted for his first Arsenal goal after returning from a knee injury.
- Gabriel Martinelli sealed the result late on, rolling the ball into an empty net after Manuel Neuer rushed out and failed to clear Eberechi Eze’s pass over the top.
- The win takes Arsenal to 15 points from five matches as the competition’s only perfect side, while Bayern suffered their first defeat of the season in all competitions.
- Earlier in the day, UEFA confirmed Max Dowman in Arsenal’s U19 squad to face Bayern, with 13-year-old Luis Munoz named among the call-ups for the Youth League tie.
