Matchday 3 of the Champions League: Bayern Munich and Arsenal played to a fair 2-2 draw in the top match.

Bayern Munich and Arsenal played to a 2-2 draw in the day’s highlight match in the Champions League. After Arsenal took the lead in Munich, Harry Kane set up the equalizer and then scored from the penalty spot. Declan Rice, however, secured a point for the Premier League champions. Manchester United suffered a 1-4 loss in Como.

Inter wins
 despite being a man down
Inter Milan defeated Shakhtar Donetsk 1-0 despite being a man down. Lens lost 0-3 in Bruges. Samson Baidoo started at center back for the French side but was substituted at halftime with the score at 0-1. In Birmingham, Austrian referee Sebastian Gishamer oversaw Aston Villa’s 3-1 home victory over Viking Stavanger. Betis Sevilla also has a perfect record after a 1-0 win over Feyenoord.

Bayern Turn the Game Around Thanks to Kane
Bayern had to do without two regular starters in the day’s marquee match. Michael Olise had to watch from the sidelines after his red card in Stavanger, while Joshua Kimmich was absent due to a death in the family. Manuel Neuer, however, was back in goal. Serge Gnabry had the first big chance for the home team, but shortly afterward, the visitors from England were celebrating. Martin Ödegaard found Eberechi Eze with a long pass (25'), who then shook off Konrad Laimer and finished into the far corner. Arsenal’s celebration was delayed as the VAR confirmed Eze was not offside.

The “Gunners,” however, led for only ten minutes. Kane played a perfect ball into the path of Alphonso Davies, who shook off his defender and finished to tie the game (35'). Things got turbulent in the opening minutes after the break. Neuer made a save off the crossbar on a header by Bruno Guimaraes, then his counterpart David Raya also made a superb save on a header by Dayot Upamecano. A penalty kick then put the German record champions ahead for the first time after an hour.

Jurrien Timber handled the ball while trying to clear it; Kane stepped up and scored in his tenth consecutive Champions League match. For the former Tottenham star, it was his 16th goal against Arsenal overall. An Arsenal equalizer didn’t seem particularly likely after that. Nevertheless, following a nice combination play, Declan Rice scored to make it 2–2 (82').
