sport news PLAYER RATINGS: Bukayo Saka's performance hampered Arsenal in their Champions ... trends now

Arsenal crashed out of the Champions League at the hands of Bayern Munich on Wednesday night, as Joshua Kimmich's second-half header handed the German giants a 3-2 win on aggregate at the Allianz Arena.

Bayern, who conceded the Bundesliga crown to Bayer Leverkusen this weekend after winning 11 consecutive top flight titles, kept hopes of major silverware alive as they booked their place in the Champions League semi-finals alongside fellow German outfit Borussia Dortmund.

Arsenal fought hard after falling behind in the 63rd minute but struggled to produce any clear cut chances, as Mikel Arteta threw on the likes of Leandro Trossard, Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah in pursuit of an equaliser.

Here, Mail Sport's ISAAN KHAN assesses the performances from both teams on a huge Champions League night.

Bayern Munich (4-2-3-1)

Manuel Neuer - 6

Claimed crosses superbly throughout the match and made saves he'd have been expected to make. Wasn't tested enough.

Joshua Kimmich - 7.5

Showed positivity to break into the box and fire Bayern ahead with an excellent header. Proved to be a key leader for Munich on the night.

Matthijs De Ligt - 6.5

Defended brilliantly alongside his centre-back partner Dier to keep Arsenal's chances to a minimum. 

Eric Dier - 6.5

An organised and focused display against his former rivals. 

Noussair Mazraoui - 7

Kept Saka uncharacteristically quiet, dealing with the English winger superbly when he cut in on his left foot.

Leon Goretzka - 7

Unlucky not to fire Bayern ahead with his header off the post and worked tirelessly to keep Odegaard and Jorginho quiet. A mature and intelligent performance.
