Germans draw 1-1 with Arsenal, but never look like losing the tie…
Bayern Munich player ratings:
- 01 Manuel Neuer – 5
Beaten at his near post for Podolski’s goal, and almost gifted Arsenal a second goal when he passed the ball straight to an attacker.
- 21 Philipp Lahm – 6
Not spectacular, but he did constantly provide an overlapping option when Franck Ribery was in possession ahead of him.
- 27 David Alaba – 8
Tackled well, passed well, and provided a constant attacking option up the left. At just 21-years-old, he’s already probably the best left-back in the world.
- 08 Javi Martínez – 5
Looked uncomfortable in central defence. His passing wasn’t at its usual crispness, and he was booked late on for a cynical tackle on Podolski.
- 04 Dante – 6
Strong performance from the Brazilian. Had the better of Giroud all evening, and sprayed the ball around nicely with his left.
