Arsenal produce stirring Champions League comeback to reach last four - 6 talking points

Arsenal reached the last four of the Women's Champions League with a 2-0 win over Bayern after a memorable night at the Emirates.

The Gunners trailed 1-0 on aggregate after last week's narrow defeat in Bavaria but Frida Maanum ignited the touch paper in the 20th minute. The Arsenal No.12 producing a stunning strike from the edge of the box after a wonderful tee-up from England captain Leah Williamson, giving Bayern keeper Maria Grohs no chance.

Bayern couldn’t breathe in the first half as the hosts dominated, and when Stina Blackstenius nodded home after great work from Katie McCabe, Arsenal were ahead in the tie for the first time. Only wasteful finishing from the Gunners ensured the tie was still in the balance going into the closing stages, with Williamson, Blackstenius, McCabe and Caitlin Foord missing good chances.
