In a thrilling Champions League encounter, Arsenal secured a significant 3-1 victory over Bayern Munich at the Emirates Stadium. This clash was pivotal for the standings, but it also ended the last unbeaten record across Europe's top five leagues.
Before this match, Vincent Kompany’s Bayern Munich had been the only team remaining undefeated, having amassed seventeen wins and one draw from eighteen fixtures. Their formidable run was halted by decisive second-half goals from Madueke and Martinelli, which inflicted the German giants' first defeat of the campaign.
Despite this setback, Bayern remains domestically dominant, boasting an unbeaten Bundesliga record of ten wins and just a single draw. Consequently, while Arsenal celebrated a crucial European triumph, the Bavarians retained their status as a class apart in Germany. This match ultimately proved that even the continent's most consistent teams can be conquered when facing elite Premier League opposition on the prominent global stage.
