Declan Rice grabs Arsenal draw at Bayern Munich in Champions League

Eze gave Arsenal the lead, but Davies levelled and Kane netted a penalty for the hosts before Rice made it 2-2.

Bukayo Saka suffered another injury setback during Arsenal's intense Champions League match against Bayern Munich. The Arsenal forward was substituted in the first 10 minutes due to a muscular injury in his thigh, likely caused by attempting to play a pass outside the Bayern penalty box. Saka immediately felt the impact of the injury, dropping to the ground as he tried to continue playing.

Treatment ensued, and he was promptly replaced by Eberechi Eze. Saka's departure dealt a significant blow to Arsenal, who now face the uncertainty of his long-term availability. Eze scored the opening goal of the match, which was validated by VAR after initially being called offside. Saka, who has been a key contributor with five goals across all competitions this season, has had a history of injury issues, including an Achilles problem from last season and a hamstring issue that kept him out for over 20 games in 2025.

Manager Mikel Arteta now faces a selection challenge, particularly on the wing following Christos Tzolis' absence. Arteta will provide an update on Saka's injury status following the match.
