Arsenal have been dealt a worrying injury blow after Bukayo Saka limped out of the Gunners' Champions League clash at Bayern Munich.
After a trademark burst forward, Saka cut inside and offloaded the ball to a teammate before immediately going down in pain. It's unclear which part of his leg he had hurt.
Saka signalled to the bench straight away and was afforded medical attention. But he was unable to continue and was replaced by Eberechi Eze after just 10 minutes.
Eze made a telling impact 14 minutes later when he fired Arsenal in front. Martin Odegaard playd a superb cross-field ball into the England star's path on the left flank.
The former Crystal Palace winger took the ball in his stride and lashed home left-footed to put the Gunners ahead. The goal was initially flagged offside but VAR adjudged Eze had held his run.
Arsenal are bidding to continue their 100 percent start in this year's Champions League after winning their opening two fixtures without conceding.
The Gunners made it all the way to the final of last season's competition, heartbreakingly losing to Paris Saint-Germain on penalties in Budapest.
