Wednesday's match at the Allianz Arena in Munich ended in a draw with Arsenal. Harry Kane gave Bayern the lead from the penalty spot in the second half, after Alphonso Davies had equalised, and Declan Rice levelled late for Arsenal.

Kane's goal made it 10 straight Champions League games with a goal. The record belongs to Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored in 11 successive matches for Real Madrid, so one more scoring game would draw him level.

Against Arsenal he has been just as sharp. Earlier he also set up Alphonso Davies for the equaliser, and his penalty took his career tally against them to 16 goals.
