Champions League: Rice rescues draw for Arsenal in thrilling game at Bayern

Declan Rice scored a late equaliser as Arsenal and Bayern Munich played out an entertaining draw in the league phase of the Champions League in a game where Bukayo Saka limped off with injury.

Saka went down after just 10 minutes with a suspected thigh problem, after he attempted to play a pass without anyone around him.

Eberechi Eze replaced Saka and scored the opening goal of the game in the 35th minute, after he latched on to an excellent pass by Martin Odegaard, with the video assistant referee needing to intervene after the England international was initially flagged offside.

But Bayern Munich were behind for just 10 minutes, with Harry Kane picking the ball up in midfield and splitting the Arsenal backline with a pinpoint pass for Alphonso Davies to finish.

Kane, who had produced a number of eye-catching passes during the match, then put Bayern in front from the penalty spot.

The England captain's shot struck Jurrien Timber's hand inside the area and Kane sent David Raya the wrong way from 12 yards as he looked to have completed the turnaround.

Bayern piled the pressure on to Arsenal as they looked for a third goal but the Gunners held firm before Rice exchanged passes with substitute Viktor Gyokeres and drilled a low shot into the bottom corner to level the game.

The Gunners pushed for a winner and Jurrien Timber forced Manuel Neuer into an acrobatic stop before full-time.
