Bayern give Arsenal a painful Champions League lesson

MUNICH -- Bayern Munich manager Thomas Tuchel said his team's Champions League experience would give them an advantage over Arsenal and he was right. Bayern advanced to the semifinals with a 1-0 win secured through Joshua Kimmich's 63rd-minute header, the crowning moment of a well-executed game plan which nullified the Gunners to the extent they managed just two shots of any description in the second half.

Arsenal have been humiliated in the Allianz Arena in past visits. They lost 5-1 on their previous two visits but while there was nothing like the gulf in class evident then, Mikel Arteta's side will leave Germany with a sense of regret at failing to produce their best when it mattered most.
