    Kane opened the scoring in the 39th minute, guiding the ball into the bottom corner with a calm right-footed effort. Serge Gnabry doubled their lead on the stroke of half-time, tucking a free header home. But the hosts fought back after the break, scoring twice in a minute to level the contest before the hour mark. Tim Kleindienst then dramatically scored the winner with 10 minutes remaining to cap off a memorable comeback and leave Bayern's faint Bundesliga title hopes in tatters.

  • DID YOU KNOW?

    It may have been a miserable day for Bayern, but Kane's season keeps getting better on an individual level. With his first-half strike, the Englishman became the first player in Europe's top-five leagues to reach 50 goal contributions.

  • THE BIG WINNERS

    Veteran striker Kleindienst had a memorable game here, scoring two of the Heidenheim goals as they roared back for a win. But the real winners from this contest might just be Arsenal. Mikel Arteta's side have endured some miserable Champions League ties with the Bavarians in the past, infamously falling on the wrong side of some heavy defeats, including two 5-1 hammerings in 2017. This time, though, there might be room for optimism. The Gunners are humming, and Bayern are looking as weak as ever. It might just be time to exorcise some demons.

    THE BIG LOSER

    It keeps getting worse for ThomasTuchel. The German manager was supposed to be the Bavarians' saviour when he was hired just over a year ago. Since then, he has stumbled his way to a league title, been knocked out of the cup, and has all-but surrendered the Bundesliga to Bayer Leverkusen this campaign. At this point, Champions League glory seems unlikely and to cap a miserable afternoon he was shown a yellow card here.

  • WHAT COMES NEXT?

    Bayern's attention now turns to the Champions League. Tuchel's men will face Arsenal in the first leg of their quarter-final tie on Tuesday, where they will look to replicate previous victories over the north Londoners in the competition. It would seem they could not have picked a worse time for the tie to come, though, with Arteta's side in scintillating form and in with a realistic chance of winning the Premier League title.
