US EditionArsenal Beat Bayern Munich to Seize Champions League Top Spot
- On Wednesday, Arsenal beat Bayern Munich 3-1 at the Emirates Stadium, preserving their perfect Champions League record with five wins from five to top the group.
- Set-Pieces and mistakes combined to shape the match's turning points, as Arsenal's opener came from a Bukayo Saka corner headed by Jurrien Timber, while Bayern errors by Dayot Upamecano and Manuel Neuer led to goals by Noni Madueke and Gabriel Martinelli.
- Timber's header arrived in the 22nd minute to give Arsenal the lead, Bayern teenager Lennart Karl volleyed a first-half equaliser, and substitutes Noni Madueke and Gabriel Martinelli scored in the second half.
- In domestic terms, the midweek victory raises the stakes for Arsenal's upcoming fixtures, with Harry Kane's quiet return to north London and the result described as ominous for Chelsea ahead of Sunday.
- Analysts caution that one result does not decide a season and highlight the set-piece debate, noting Arsenal’s 3-1 win doesn't define season-long context or set-pieces versus open play.
