In the second leg of the Champions League knockout round of 8, the Gunners came to the Allianz Arena to face Bayern, Kimmich scored the only goal of the game, Arsenal lost 0:1, and the aggregate score was 2:3.
With Bayer Leverkusen's big win to win the title early, Bayern has missed the league title, and the German Cup exit also means that the Champions League is the only remaining title contender for the Southern Kings. However, Gnabry and Koeman were injured and Tuchel had to make changes in the starting line-up, with Guerreiro forming an attacking line with Kane, Sane and Musiala, Laimer and Goretzka in midfield, Mazraoui, Dier, De Ligt and Kimmich at the back, and Manuel Neuer in goal.
Mikel Arteta was the main force, with Martinelli, Bukayo Saka and Kai Havertz leading the attack, Odegaard, Rice and Jorginho in midfield, Ben White, Saliba, Gabriel and Tomiyasu in the backline, and Raya in the last line of defence.

In the 8th minute, Martinelli cut into the far corner and did not hit the frame, and in the 22nd minute, Guerreiro advanced to the ribs and passed through, Mazraoui pushed forward from the left side at a small angle, and Ben White stretched out his leg to block the bottom line.
In the 24th minute, Musiala suddenly made a cold arrow from the periphery, Raya flew to make a world-class save, in the 29th minute, Odegaard's powerful shot from the periphery was refracted, and Neuer responded with a world save to keep the goal intact, and in the 31st minute, Odegaard got rid of the through stopper, Martinelli pushed the goal in front of the goal, and Neuer confiscated the ball. The number of shots on goal in the first half was 5-6, and the possession rate was equal, and it was basically evenly matched.
Just 1 minute after coming back in the second half, Kimmich crossed diagonally, Gorezka's header outflanked the goal, Raya was already out of reach, but the ball was blocked by the goalpost! In the 63rd minute, Sane broke through the bottom transfer, Guerreiro received the ball on the left side and crossed, Kimmich inserted the top and scored, 1:0, the aggregate score was 3:2! Bayern led at home, which was Kimmich's first Champions League goal of the season. Two minutes later, Mazraoui sent in a cross from the left, but Sane volleyed the anti-aircraft gun.
Arteta did not hesitate to make decisive adjustments, Jesus and Trossard came off the bench to strengthen the attack, Tuchel replaced Kim Min-jae to stabilize the backline, in the 80th minute, Rice was diagonally blocked, Jesus inserted and pushed wide, and in the 87th minute, Odegaard pushed from a small angle, and Neuer reached out to block the ball from the bottom line.
In the rest of the game, Arsenal failed to organize an effective attack, and finally 0:1 became a full-time game, and the Gunners hated the Champions League top 8 with an aggregate score of 2:3; Bayern Munich made it to the semi-finals, and Kane still has the possibility of winning the title this season.
