Arsenal took control in the second half of their Champions League clash against Bayern Munich, overturning a tense first-half battle with an aggressive and attacking display.

Mikel Arteta’s tactical changes proved decisive. He introduced Riccardo Calafiori, who immediately set up a stunning goal for fellow substitute Madueke, giving Arsenal a crucial lead.

Gabriel Martinelli’s introduction added further spark. Following a Bayern corner, Arsenal launched a quick counterattack. Neuer misjudged a long ball to Martinelli far from goal, allowing the Brazilian to calmly slot the ball into an empty net, making it 3-1.

With this win, Arsenal appear poised to hand Bayern their first competitive defeat in 18 matches this season.
