The Bavarians drew 2-2 with Arsenal in London, as Leandro Trossard scored the final goal of the game to level the tie. Bukayo Saka opened up the scoring in the 12th minute with a perfect finish from the left wing, before Serge Gnabry scored against his former side. Harry Kane gave his side the lead with a penalty earned by Leroy Sane, but Bayern couldn’t hold on to their 2-1 lead.

The match had a dramatic finish, with Kingsley Coman’s strike from close range passing through David Raya’s legs, but hitting the post. At the other end, Saka was denied a late penalty for light contact with Manuel Neuer, who came charging out to the edge of the box.

Real Madrid 3-3 Manchester City

The latest big European rivalry added another thrilling chapter to it’s history with a 3-3 draw at the Santiago Bernabeu. Bernardo Silva opened the scoring by catching Andriy Lunin off guard from a free kick, and the Portuguese scored from distance when everyone was expecting him to cross the ball into the box. However, City’s lead would be short lived, as Eduardo Camavinga forced an own goal from Ruben Dias, before Rodrygo gave his side the lead from a counter attack.

Phil Foden equalised by powering the ball into the top left corner, a shot no goalkeeper would have been able to save. Only minutes later, Josko Gvardiol scored his first goal for Manchester City, giving the visitors a 3-2 lead with a brilliant strike from the edge of the box.

However, another breathtaking strike, this time from Fede Valverde at the other end, ensured that City didn’t win again at the Bernabeu.
