Champions League: Bayern Munich secures draw at Arsenal

Traveling to Arsenal for the quarter-final first leg of the Champions League, Bayern Munich obtained a draw (2-2). The match started badly after Saka's goal for the Gunners (12th) but Gnabry (18th) then Kane (32nd). But at the end of the match, Trossard tied his team up (76th).

Champions League: Real Madrid and Manchester City back to back after an exceptional show

At the end of this first leg of the Champions League quarter-final, it is difficult to know whether one of the two teams can be happy with the result. The Gunners, quickly in front thanks to a wonderful flat foot from Bukayo Sako (12th), generally controlled the match and created the most chances. They could even have quickly led 2-0 if Ben White had converted his face-to-face (15th). However, in twenty minutes, the Bayern players returned the score. First thanks to Gnabry on a bad recovery from Gabriel (18th). Then thanks to a penalty obtained by Leroy Sané and transformed by Harry Kane (32nd).

In the second period, the pace of the match slowed down. Entering simultaneously, Garbiel Jesus and Leandro Trossard allowed the Gunners to come back, after a technical festival from the Brazilian and a precise strike from the Belgian. At the end of the match, each of the two teams had the opportunity to finish off their opponent. Kingsley Coman first found the post in the 88th minute then Bukayo Saka thought he would get a penalty which the referee did not award him (94th)

Rarely in the league have Bayern allowed themselves to play so low by leaving the ball to their opponent. However, this is what German coach Thomas Tuchel proposed. A defensive device with unusual sequences with the 11 Bayern players in their 30 meters. Bayern's attacks were then limited to quick counterattacks perfectly led by Leroy Sané in great form, who constantly hurt the English defenders.

A tactic which almost bore fruit since Bayern was particularly solid. Manuel Neuer only had two saves made on shots without real danger. Only Gabriel Jesus' technique in the penalty area allowed Arsenal to get back into the match. The return match on April 17 promises to be particularly open, and the tactics of both camps may well not resemble tonight's spectacle.
