The defender pulled off a last-gasp tackle as the Gunners drew 2-2 at the Emirates Stadium.

However, Declan Rice was anonymous in midfield on a difficult night for the England international.
Here are SunSport’s full player ratings for the Gunners.
David Raya – 5
Didn’t need to come steaming out of his goal with the move that ultimately cost a goal. Nowhere near Kane’s penalty either.
Ben White – 7
Assist for Saka’s opening goal, should have made it two himself when clean through moments later.But a brilliant last-gasp tackle kept his side in the tie. Sums up Arsenal overall.
Gabriel – 5
Mix up with his keeper put everyone under pressure and it turned the tide of the game. Will also have a sore throat today after getting Kane’s forearm in the neck.

William Saliba – 5
Clumsy tackle conceded the spot kick from which public enemy no.1 Kane struck the devastating blow.
Jakub Kiwior – 5
Part of the three-man cock up which led to Bayern’s shock leveller. Hooked at half time so we know who Arteta blames don’t we?
Declan Rice – 5
Surprisingly anonymous and overrun at times. Maybe the season is catching up on him just when he needs to be in top gear.
Jorginho – 5
The fulcrum of the Arsenal team with his calm approach. But even he could not find the right pass or the right words to drive Arsenal on.
Martin Odegaard – 5
Provided the probing through ball to Saka that triggered Arsenal’s early goal. But the skipper who normally leads by example was way below par.
Bukayo Saka – 6
Cracking early goal but failed to build on it as the whole Arsenal team had a duff day. Largely indifferent in the second half.
Bukayo Saka opened the scoring in the Champions League quarter-final first leg[/caption]Kai Havertz – 6
A chance to show his old Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel just how much he has come on. But failed to spark. Good work rate though.
Gabriel Martinelli – 5
Lacked the penetration that has been a big part of his game this season. Unable to break down the Bayern right and get the supply line of crosses in.
Subs
Oleksandr Zinchenko (Kiwior 46 mins) – 5
Brought on to replace the unfortunate Kiwior but wasn’t much of an improvement.
Leandro Trossard (Martinelli 66 mins) – 7
Started and finished the somewhat clumsy move than ended in a neat left foot finish for Arsenal’s equaliser.
Leandro Trossard came off the bench to equalise for the Gunners[/caption]Gabriel Jesus (Jorginho 66 mins) – 6
Made his presence felt with his run and sideways pass for Trossard’s vital goal that keeps Arsenal alive.
