Arsenal 2-1 Bayern Munich LIVE
International Champions Cup 2019

Arsenal kept their 100 per cent pre-season record as the Gunners overcame Bayern Munich 2-1 in LA on Thursday morning,

Eddie Nketiah's late goal saw Unai Emery's north Londoners earn three International Champions Cup points against the Bundesliga champions following an end-to-end game.

It looked as though Arsenal were going to be held to a draw after Robert Lewandowski's header cancelled out an early own goal from Louis Poznanski, but Nketiah struck with two minutes to go to ensure the Gunners were not left to rue missing a host of gilt-edged chances.
