Just days after dismantling Tottenham in the north London derby, Mikel Arteta&rsquo;s side once again showcased precision and control. Arsenal climbed to the top of the league phase table and reinforced their growing status as one of the tournament&rsquo;s leading contenders.<\/p><p>The Gunners imposed themselves early and their breakthrough came via a familiar source. Bukayo Saka&rsquo;s corner found Jurrien Timber, who powered home his header for Arsenal&rsquo;s 10th set-piece goal of the season. However, Bayern responded well and teenage midfielder Lennart Karl levelled the contest with a composed finish after Serge Gnabry and Joshua Kimmich combined to unlock the Arsenal defense. It was the first goal Arsenal had conceded in the Champions League this season, but it turned out to be their only moment of vulnerability.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">ANOTHER BIG EUROPEAN WIN IN THE BOOKS &#9989; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/8bEDZ1BcEL\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/8bEDZ1BcEL<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Arsenal (@Arsenal) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Arsenal\/status\/1993800597515247747?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>November 26, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/liverpool-collapse-again-as-psv-run-riot-at-anfield\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Liverpool Collapse Again As PSV Run Riot at Anfield<\/a><\/strong><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Arsenal Dominate Bayern in 2nd Half<\/h2><p>Arteta&rsquo;s substitutions proved decisive after the break.
