Arsenal and Bayern Munich played an exciting 2-2 draw in the UEFA Champions League quarter-final at the Emirates.

Leandro Trossard, a substitute for Arsenal, scored a late goal to secure a thrilling draw for the Premier League leaders.

The match started with Bukayo Saka scoring a fantastic goal for Arsenal in the 12th minute. However, Bayern Munich, who are struggling in the Bundesliga, equalized with a goal from Serge Gnabry in the 18th minute.

Bayern Munich then took the lead in the match when Harry Kane, the England captain, calmly converted a penalty in the 32nd minute after Leroy Sane was fouled by William Saliba.

Former Tottenham’s star player Kane has scored 15 goals in 20 matches against Arsenal, making him the top scorer against the Gunners at the Emirates Stadium since it opened in 2006.

Bayern seemed to be in control before the second leg in Munich next Wednesday, but Mikel Arteta’s team managed to secure a draw with a goal from Trossard, assisted by Gabriel Jesus.

The outcome of the match is uncertain, with the winners facing either Real Madrid or Manchester City in the semi-finals after their exciting 3-3 draw at the Bernabeu.
