Play by play

  1. 90'

    A sorry evening for Arsenal. They got the goal to pressure the Germans but they couldn't get a second. That first leg cost them. That £30m will have to be spent well if Arsene is to achieve his Euro dream. Always next year, Gooners! You can support Chelsea in Europe now.

  2. 90'

    Ze Roberto takes his time. The ball does not get forward. But nor does it find its way into the Bayern half.....it's over for Arsenal. They join United in the Champions League dumper.

  3. 90'

    Tired legs now. Arsenal frustrated. Arsene angry. Whistle blows for a high Toure foot. Time running out...

  4. 90'

    Ballack stops Fabregas. And is fouled. Yellow card for the Spaniard. Wasting his own time. Hargreaves to come on. The 'Englishman' replaces Salihamidzic.

  5. 90'

    Time added on. Only three to go. Pizarro run out in the corner. On Arsenal must go...

  6. 89'

    Senderos nearly let in Pizarro but Lehmann stops him as a goal looked certain. Now Pires commits a free kick foul.

  7. 87'

    Ball played into the box. Toure attacks it and Kahn knocks behind. But two attempts to get the ball in by Van Persie are in vain. Bergkamp lashes across goal. Toure too slow to react. Goal-kick. Bayern breathe.

  8. 86'

    But the passes are circumspect rather than attacking. Ze Roberto weaves away but the ball is hacked clear.

  9. 86'

    Ball not sticking up front for Bayern any longer. Arsenal with the impetus.

  10. 86'

    Series of balls played into the box. Series of Bayern clearances. Time ticks on...

  11. 85'

    Pires gallops forward. Henry flick but a Salihamidzic saving tackle.

  12. 84'

    Senderos wins a free-kick from Pizarro. Guerrero goes off. Linke on.

  13. 83'

    Wenger going ape on the sideline. Bayern set to make a change. Linke's coming on. Defensive reinforcement.

  14. 82'

    Tension mounting...Van Persie sees a gap but overhits his threaded pass to Ashley Cole.

  15. 81'

    Demichelis shot blocked. Bergkamp scuttles away. But Lizarazu has a swipe and is booked for it.

  16. 80'

    Ze Roberto charges away. Henry uses that Olympic pace to get back and tackle him. He's shown up tonight.

  17. 79'

    Handball claim but the ball came off Henry's hand and not Sagnol's. Ljungberg off. On comes Van Persie. Let's hope he keeps his temper.

  18. 78'

    Henry concedes a free-kick as he goes up for the ball. At the other end another infringement. Ref does a fine James Galway impression in blowing for almost everything.

  19. 76'

    Ze Roberto's effort is dinked away. End to end now. Gaps at the back as Arsenal push for that goal. Next goal wins one thinks.

  20. 74'

    Kovac steps in to stop Henry. He intercepts a ball thread through to the Frenchman from Bergkamp.

  21. 73'

    Ballack suddenly drags himself from the midfield mire. Lovely skill and a great hit but Lehmann is equal to the task. That could have been curtains.

  22. 72'

    The action has halted somewhat. Getting bitty as we head into the latter stages. It's a really tight. Bayern have been holding possession and holding off the threat of Arsenal's attack.

  23. 70'

    Ball to be smashed in by Bayern. Lehmann knocked over. He dives to the ground.

  24. 69'

    Arsenal, Arsenal, Arsenal. That's the song from the library choir.

  25. 68'

    Bergkamp involved in an incident with Lizarazu. Anger flying around. Tackles flying in....we have a game on our hands.
