DECLAN RICE rescued a point for Arsenal in a tense 2-2 draw against Bayern Munich in Germany.

The Gunners faced an early challenge when Bukayo Saka sustained a thigh injury in the 10th minute.

Eberechi Eze came on to replace him and made an immediate impact by giving his team the lead.

However, the hosts equalised through Alphonso Davies, who found space to slot past David Raya.

Former Tottenham captain Harry Kane scored a penalty that shifted the momentum of the match.

But midfielder Rice made sure to level the scores again in the final 10 minutes.

The Gunners will be pleased with a point after a challenging night at the Allianz Arena.

Here’s how SunSport’s Emillia Hawkins evaluated the performance…

David Raya – 7

Made an excellent close-range save from a Dayot Upamecano header to keep the score level.

Dove the wrong way for the penalty, and there wasn’t much he could do to prevent Davies’ equaliser.

Jurrien Timber – 6

Gave away the penalty scored by Harry Kane for a handball, which was somewhat unlucky as he was sliding in to block a shot.

Forced Neuer into a fine save in added time with a long-range effort.

Ezri Konsa – 6

Received a booking for a rough challenge on Kane in the first half.

He frequently tracked the Bayern striker but got pulled out of position at times, leaving Timber exposed, especially when Davies scored.

Gabriel Magalhaes – 6

Positioned too high up the pitch for Bayern’s equaliser, giving Davies space to score.

Almost put the Gunners ahead early in the second half with a header saved brilliantly by Manuel Neuer.

Made a critical block to thwart a four-on-two Bayern attack that could have sealed the game.

Riccardo Calafiori – 6

Comfortably pushed high up the pitch, even finding himself in the No. 9 position when Eze scored.

However, his high press occasionally left Arsenal’s defence exposed.

Bruno Guimaraes – 6

A solid performance holding the midfield together.

Declan Rice – 8

Provided excellent crosses into the box, particularly from set pieces, although the Gunners struggled to make them count.

Crucially scored the equaliser in the last 10 minutes after a superb team move.

Martin Odegaard – 7

Delivered a brilliant ball to Eze for the opening goal.

Noni Madueke – 6

Found it hard to replicate his late-game impact from the previous match against Nottingham Forest.

Had limited contributions upfront at times but sparked the attack leading to Rice’s equaliser.

Madueke started on the left but switched to the right to fill in for Saka.

Bukayo Saka – 5

Had to leave the pitch due to injury after just 10 minutes, limiting his contribution.

Kai Havertz – 5

Made minimal impact in attack and struggled to influence the game.

At risk of losing his starting position to Viktor Gyokeres, who assisted the equaliser after coming off the bench.

SUBSTITUTES

Eberechi Eze (for Saka, 10) – 7

Substituted in early to replace Saka, and scored Arsenal’s opener with a composed finish in the 25th minute.
