Having lost motivation in the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich still played with enthusiasm and secured a victory against Arsenal in the Champions League. After 29 minutes, Leon Goretzka opened the scoring for the away team. He was in the right place to strike, hitting the crossbar and sending the ball into the net after a perfect pass from Mathys Tel.

Before the end of the second half, Harry Kane made it to the score sheet with a sublime free-kick over Union Berlin’s wall to mark his 33rd goal in the Bundesliga this season. The former champions didn’t let up after halftime, with Thomas Muller adding the third goal with a shot past goalkeeper Ronnow after a pass from Choupo-Moting in the 53rd minute.

Tel scored his own goal in the 61st minute, shooting into the corner after a pass from Kane. Four minutes later, Muller completed his brace with a header from Goretzka’s cross, and shortly after, Thomas Tuchel began to gradually withdraw his starting players. Union Berlin only managed a consolation goal in the 90th minute after Vertessen’s cut-in and shot, offering little solace for the capital team, who now sit just three points above the playoff position for relegation.
