Arsenal and Bayern Munich remain level after the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie having drawn 2-2 in North London.
Bayern headed to the Emirates Stadium in search of a big result just days after losing to Heidenheim in the Bundesliga.
Their night didn’t get off to the best of starts as Bukayo Saka curled a lovely strike past Manuel Neuer to make it 1-0 to Arsenal.
Serge Gnabry then returned to haunt his former club with the equaliser before Harry Kane did what he does best and scored against Arsenal.
Kane scored from the spot but it wasn’t enough for Bayern to claim the victory as Leandro Trossard found a second-half leveller.
Arsenal had a big shout for a penalty turned down in the dying seconds of the game and they must now head to Germany with the game finely-poised at 2-2.
Arsenal fans chant at Harry Kane
It felt almost inevitable that Kane would score against Arsenal.
The England star was prolific against Arsenal in a Tottenham shirt and he was at it again on Tuesday night.
Kane was never going to receive the warmest of welcomes at the Emirates and the mocking from Arsenal fans continued even after the game was over.
As Kane spoke to TNT Sports, Arsenal fans who had stayed inside the stadium after the final whistle could be heard chanting towards the Bayern striker.
‘He’s top of the league, he’s top of the league, Granit Xhaka, he’s top of the league,’ was the main chant, whilst others were chanting about hating Tottenham.
Xhaka may have left Arsenal last summer but Gunners fans are well aware that the Swiss midfielder stands on the brink of glory at Kane’s expense…
Granit Xhaka set for title win
Kane left Tottenham for Bayern surely expecting to win the Bundesliga title, but the season has not gone to plan.
Bayern – who have won the league title every year for more than a decade – will miss out on the title this year.
Bayer Leverkusen are just one win away from being crowned Bundesliga champions for the first time ever.
Xhaka joined Leverkusen last summer and has been a key part of Xabi Alonso’s all-conquering side this season.
Leverkusen haven’t lost a single game in any competition this season and Xhaka could yet be in line for a new more trophies before the season ends.
Arsenal fans love Xhaka anyway, but seeing him potentially win the title ahead of Kane is a real spot of delight for Gunners supporters – and it’s nom surprise that we heard those chants.
