Bayern Munich had come to London unbeaten in 21 matches and with Harry Kane in red hot form with 26 goals. It proved to be chastening experience for the German champions who lost 1-3. Arsenal are now the only team with an all-win record after five rounds in the Champions League. They are also in pole position in the Premier League, six points clear of competition.

The best of times for Arsenalmanager Mikel Arteta said the performance against Bayern was "immense" -is also the worst of times for Liverpool. The Premier League champions lost 1-4 to PSV, the first English team since 2008 to lose to the Dutch club at home. This was Liverpool's ninth defeat in 12 games in all competition and the first time since January 1954 that they have lost three straight matches by three goals.
