Bayern Munich star Harry Kane has hailed one Arsenal player as ‘really dangerous’ after the game at the Emirates last night.
It was a fantastic night of football in the Champions League, wasn’t it?
Arsenal went ahead through Bukayo Saka but then made two terrible mistakes to allow Bayern to go into the break with a 2-1 lead.
Leandro Trossard then equalised in the second half after some brilliant work by Gabriel Jesus, and that helped Arsenal avoid defeat.
Harry Kane says one Arsenal player is ‘really dangerous’
Arsenal went into the game against Bayern Munich last night as the favourites in many people’s eyes.
The German champions have had a terrible season. They are already 16 points behind Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga table and are almost certain to miss out on the title.
However, Arsenal’s inexperience at this stage of the Champions League was evident, especially in the first half, and that cost them a win last night.
One of the big positives the North Londoners can take from the game was the impact three of their substitutes had after coming on.
Oleksandr Zinchenko played really well after being thrown in at half-time, but the stars of the show were Gabriel Jesus and Leandro Trossard.
The Belgian was the one who scored the goal to level the game in the second half, but the way Jesus got into the box, pulled off an incredible skill and then found Trossard was just incredible.
Speaking after the game, Harry Kane seemed impressed with Jesus’ ‘chop’ and hailed the Brazilian as a ‘really dangerous’ player in the box.
The former Tottenham man told TNT Sports: “Obviously, disappointment (that Arsenal equalised). But look, it was a tough game.
“I think leading up to that goal we lost two or three duels in a row. [Gabriel] Jesus in the box is really dangerous with the chop he has and unfortunately for us, he found Trossard there.
“Overall, it was a really tough game. Of course, we are never happy not to win but a tough point away from home.”
Gabriel Jesus’ stats vs Bayern as a substitute will really impress you
It was a bit of a surprise to see Gabriel Jesus on the Arsenal bench last night, especially after he appeared for the pre-match press conference on Monday.
Gabriel Martinelli replaced him in the starting eleven, and the former Ituano man didn’t have the greatest of games on the left flank.
Mikel Arteta turned to Gabriel Jesus in the second half, and the Brazilian, along with Leandro Trossard, came on for the last 23 minutes of the game.
In such a short space of time, Jesus showed his class.
The 27-year-old, along with picking up his assist, had 13 touches of the ball and completed all but one of his passes during his time on the pitch.
Jesus also won every single one of his duels, completed all of his dribbles, made a tackle and lost possession just once in those final 23 minutes.
In what has been a really tough season, Jesus should be happy with his display after coming on last night.
