Bayern Munich 5-1 Arsenal - As it happened
Re-live Bayern's impressive triumph over Arsenal in the first leg of their Champions League Last 16 tie.
FULL-TIME: Bayern Munich 5-1 Arsenal
Bayern were the better team on the night and thorougly deserved the win, they could have probably scored two or three more and they were denied two legitimate penalties. Arsenal must hope for a miracle to turn this around in London in two weeks' time.
