Arsenal drew 2-2 with Bayern Munich in the Champions League, thanks to Declan Rice’s 82nd-minute equaliser. The result, secured on Wednesday at the Allianz Arena, ended the German club’s run of home victories, BusinessDay reports.
Arsenal snatched a 2-2 draw against Bayern Munich on Wednesday 21 October in a Champions League match at the Allianz Arena. Declan Rice equalised for Mikel Arteta’s side in the 82nd minute, after Harry Kane had put the Bavarians ahead with a second-half penalty, BusinessDay reports.
Eberechi Eze opened the scoring for Arsenal in the 25th minute. Alphonso Davies then equalised for Bayern, following a pass from Kane. The German club were without Michael Olise, Joshua Kimmich and Jamal Musiala, while their manager Vincent Kompany, who had been a doubt because of illness, ultimately took his place on the bench.
Kane’s penalty was his 16th goal in 23 appearances against Arsenal. He has also scored in ten consecutive Champions League matches, one short of the record of eleven set by Cristiano Ronaldo with Real Madrid. Arsenal have thus dropped points only for the second time in twelve matches in all competitions this season.
The result had already been reported in the match recap published on 21 October. The match had been preceded by the publication of probable line-ups for Bayern-Arsenal on 19 October.
