The Gunners shock German giants at Emirates Stadium
Goals from Olivier Giroud and Mesut Ozil gave Arsenal a shock win against Bayern Munich last night, ending the German’s 12-game run unbeaten.
The Gunners went into the game knowing only a win would do after losing to Dinamo Zagreb and Olympiakos in earlier game-weeks.
Despite the visitors having 70% possession, they couldn’t find a way past Petr Cech, who was playing his first Champions League game for the North London side.
Second-half goals from Giroud and Ozil gave Arsene Wenger‘s men the vital and impressive victory, but here are the Five Things that stood out most for us.
5) Manuel Neuer is Human
After making an astonishing save to deny Theo Walcott in the first-half, Manuel Neuer has proven he is human after-all with an error leading to Olivier Giroud’s goal.
The German came rushing out of his goal to deal with a set-piece, but got it all wrong and missed the ball completely, leaving Giroud to head into an empty net.
Neuer is known for his crazy antics, and this was just another one of those moments, but sadly for him, he got it wrong.
After the game he admitted he played well, but also admitted it was his fault his side lost.
