Bayern Munich beats Arsenal to advance to semifinals

Bayern Munich beat Arsenal 1-0 in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals in the 2023-24 season at Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany, on the 18th (Korea time).

Bayern Munich, which had previously drawn 2-2 with Arsenal in the first leg, advanced to the semi-finals with a 3-2 aggregate score. It is their first semi-final appearance in four years since the Champions League-winning 2019-20 season. Arsenal's attempt to advance to the semi-finals for the first time in 15 years after the 2008-09 season was blocked by Bayern Munich.

Munich coach Thomas Tuchel took out the 4-2-3-1 formation. Harry Kane stood at the front line. Jamal Mussiala, Rafael Geheiro and Leroy Zane played in the second line. Konrad Reimer and Leon Goretzka were selected for the third line. The back four consisted of Nusair Mazrawi, Eric Dier, Matthias the Richt and Jojua Kimihiro. Manuel Neuer wore goalkeeper gloves.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta fought 4-3-3. Gabriel Martinelli, Kai Havertz, and Bukayo Saka stood at the front line. Declan Rice, Jorginho, and Martin Odegaard played in the midfield. The back four consisted of Takehiro Tomiyasu, Gabriel Magalangis, William Saliba, and Ben White. David Raya kept the goal.

Bayern Munich's Leroy Sane ran on the right side in the 16th minute of the first half, but it did not lead to a score, so it was regrettable. Bayern Munich, which finished 0-0 in the first half, missed a chance to score by hitting the post twice in the second minute. When Rafael Geheiro's header hit the crossbar, Leon Goretzka connected with a left-footed shot, but even this was blocked by the left post after being defended.

Bayern Munich continued to knock on the goal, and in the 18th minute of the second half, Jojua Kimmich, who rushed to the gate with a cross from Geheiro's left side, connected with a header and scored the first winning shot.

Both teams fought to the end. Bayern Munich tried to score more goals, and Arsenal looked for a tie. However, no additional goal was scored.

Bayern Munich played defensively at the end of the game. At that time, Kim Min-jae was deployed. In the 31st minute of the second half, he was replaced by Nusair Majirawi and played until the end of the game. He played the role of a left-back, not a center-back.

Tuchel recently considered changing his position over how to use Kim Min-jae. He is planning to move Kim Min-jae to the left full-back position rather than the center-back defense, which is his main position. It is one of the options to strengthen his defense, which means that Kim Min-jae has been completely pushed out of the race for the starting position at Bayern Munich center-back.

Despite the short period of time, Kim managed to overcome Arsenal's persistent offensives by banking on his solid defense. He blocked the opponent's passes and engaged in a strong physical fight. Foot Mob, which specializes in soccer statistics, gave Kim a 6.1 rating.
