Arsenal even broke the 10-year-old jinx with the power of the set piece.

Arsenal maintained a 100% win rate with a 3-1 victory over Bayern Munich (Germany) at the Emirates Stadium in London on the 27th (Korea time) in the fifth round of the European Champions League (UCL) phase.

Arsenal, which had 15 points in all five games, led the way by three points over Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), Munich, Inter Milan, and Real Madrid (more than 12 points). He is turning the hope circuit to win the championship with 'Overwhelming Performance', in which 14 goals are scored in five games and only one goal is lost.




Arsenal, who have not met Munich five times since 2015, have broken a 10-year winless jinx. Munich, which replaced Kim Min-jae as a substitute, suffered its first defeat of the season away to Arsenal.

Arsenal is leading the English Premier League this season by six points, beating second-place Chelsea (23 points) with nine wins, two draws and one loss. At this point, Arsenal have the best chance of winning the two tournaments.

Once again, the set piece shone. Nicolas Zover, a coach dedicated to set-piece, is known to study various set-piece tactics and incorporate them into practice, with Arsenal breaking the 0 balance with a corner kick in the 22nd minute. A left-footed goal from Bukayo Saka was headed by Yulien Timber in front of the goal.




Timber, a full-back who is not tall at 1m82, jumped high among Munich's tall players and scored a header goal. Timber's goal is Arsenal's 10th corner kick this season. Currently, no team has more corner kick goals than Arsenal in the five major European leagues. Soccer fans say that `Giving Arsnall a corner is no different from giving him free throws at a basketball game.'

Arsenal scored an equalizer in the 32nd minute to Munich's 17-year-old special Leonard Karl to end the first half 1-1.

However, Noni Madueke and Gabriel Martinelli, who substituted in the second half, scored consecutive goals in the 24th and 32nd minutes of the second half, respectively. Munich gatekeeper Manuel Neuer produced a ridiculous situation in which he ran out of the goal to block a counterattack in the third run and fell. Munich's proud 'Tottenham legend' Arsenal, which tied Harry Kane and Michael Olise together, completed a 3-1 victory.




Arsenal, which defeated North London rival Tottenham 4-1 in the previous league match, showed off their prowess to win two games in the 「3 consecutive games of death」 leading to Tottenham-Munich and Chelsea.

Kim Min-jae, who was included in the replacement list, was replaced by Dayot Upamecano in the 37th minute of the second half when the team was being dragged 1-3 and played on the ground for about eight minutes.
