Rice rescues Arsenal with late equaliser at Bayern
Bayern Munich were on track for victory before Declan Rice equalised with eight minutes remaining to salvage a point in the 2-2 draw.
MUNICH: Arsenal's Declan Rice scored a late equaliser, securing a 2-2 draw against Bayern Munich in the Champions League match at the Allianz Arena. Eberechi Eze opened the score for Arsenal after replacing the injured Bukayo Saka, while Alphonso Davies equalised for Bayern with a sublime pass from Harry Kane. Kane had Bayern on the brink of victory with a second-half penalty, but Rice's equaliser with eight minutes left earned Arsenal a point.
Bayern lacked key players, including Michael Olise, Joshua Kimmich, and Jamal Musiala. Coach Vincent Kompany, who was questionable due to illness, made his debut as a manager. Despite the absences, Kane kept Bayern's threat alive with another impressive performance and a penalty in the second half, extending his goal streak to 10 consecutive Champions League matches.
The draw marked the second time Arsenal had conceded points in 12 games across all competitions this season.
