Arsenal made a sourly disappointing exit from the Champions League as they were beaten by Bayern Munich at Allianz Arena, Germany.
Joshua Kimmich’s goalbound 63rd-minute header from Raphael Guerreiro’s cross was all the Germans needed to get through to the semi-finals 3-2 on aggregate after the two teams had drawn 2-2 in London in the first leg.
Despite being held to a draw at Emirates Stadium, Arsenal were confident of advancing against a Bayern Munich side who had endured a poor domestic season and were without key players Serge Gnabry and Kingsley Coman because of injury.

The second leg, which was watched by Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke, Gabriel Martinelli had the best chance of the first half for the Gunners but shot straight at Manuel Neuer after Jamal Musiala had forced David Raya into a full-stretch save at the other end.
However, Kimmich’s header was decisive and ensured that Arsenal’s wait to win the Champions League for the first time goes on.
