Bayern Munich gave Arsenal a second-half hammering in Germany this evening, with Thiago Alcantara's first goal the pick of the bunch.
Despite going in at half-time level at 1-1, the German giants came quick out the blocks in the second period, and scored three goals all before the hour mark to make the Champions League last-16 first-leg 4-1.
Lewandowski had scored a towering header himself to make it 2-1 just after the break, but a few minutes later was the real piece of brilliance.

After receiving a slick pass from Xabi Alonso, Lewandowski cleverly back-heeled the ball through to Thiago, who coolly slotted it home.
