End of 2nd Half
90+3'
FT: Bayern 5-1 Arsenal. The Bavarians have one foot in the quarters after demolishing Arsenal with four goals in the second half. Lewandowski, Thiago (2) and Muller look to have knocked the Gunners out already after Sanchez had cancelled out Robben's opener to give them hope at HT. Koscielny's injury was a key moment as three goals in 10 minutes followed his departure.
90+2'
First Barca and now Arsenal. Hammerings being dished out in the big ties in this round!

Three minutes added.

That injury to Koscielny will be seen as a key moment. Bayern did raise their level after the break though.
89'
A real disaster for Arsenal. They are effectively out at this stage once again. Bayern won't lose four zip at the Emirates.
88'
GOAL! It's five and it's deja vu for Arsenal who went down by this scoreline the last time they came here. Muller makes an instant impact as he coolly tucks into the far corner after collecting a pass from Thiago.

Ospina with another superb save. Costa cuts in and curves in a shot from the right that the keeper brilliantly tips past the post.

'Bayern, Bayern, Bayern...' It's an incessant chant from the home crowd as the toy with the Gunners.

Robben almost makes it five. He's linked up so well with Lahm tonight. Arsenal can't live with them.

Looking like it could be a last 16 exit for a seventh season in a row for Arsenal... They need to do something special at the Emirates and a goal here to reduce the arrears would be a massive help.
77'
A real scramble in that Arsenal area. Ospina dives on the loose ball and gets a bit of a kick as Lewandowski tried to get on the end of it. Brave keeping.
