Arsenal handed worst possible draw in Europe

Arsenal were left wondering what they have to do to avoid Europe’s top teams yesterday after once again drawing Bayern Munich in the Champions League knockout stages.

The Gunners topped their group this season and were hoping for an easier draw but were given the best team in the Bundesliga.

The draw is a repeat of their last-16 ties from both 2013 and 2014, both of which saw Arsenal eliminated. The two clubs also met in last season’s group stage.
