Arsenal’s season took a turn for the worse in just four days, as they struggled in their recent matches. The team displayed moments of proficiency and control, but ultimately seemed to be still adjusting to the demands of European competition. Manager Arteta observed his team looking tired and fatigued as their results began to slip.

It was evident that Arsenal is a work in progress, and while the team continues to learn and grow, their recent defeat is of little comfort. Despite a tense start, Arsenal appeared more composed in the second leg. They missed a crucial chance when Martinelli’s shot was saved by Bayern’s goalkeeper Neuer.

However, the team noticeably improved from previous encounters with Bayern, showing a more controlled performance. As the match progressed, Bayern began to assert their dominance, hitting the bar and post in quick succession. Arsenal’s composure started to wane, and they eventually conceded a goal to Kimmich.

Despite their efforts to equalize, Arsenal could not break through Bayern’s defense, and the match ended in the home team’s favor. Overall, the recent setbacks have highlighted the team’s ongoing development and learning process. The defeat, while disappointing, serves as a reminder that Arsenal is still on the path towards improvement and growth in European competition.
