During Arsenal's pulse-pounding 2-2 draw with Bayern, Leroy Sane won a penalty with a mazy run and Kane stepped up to score, stuttering in his run-up and rolling the ball into the bottom corner. Raya was sent the wrong way by the penalty but seemed to give up, as he merely took a knee and watched Kane's effort hit the back of the net. Serge Gnabry was also on the scoresheet for Bayern, while the Gunners saw both Bukayo Saka and Leandro Trossard find the back of the net.

Raya has battled with Aaron Ramsdale for the No.1 spot throughout the season and it remains to be seen who will be selected to play in the return leg next week. Thus far this season, the Spaniard has played in every Champions League game barring the final group game against PSV Eindhoven, but Tottenham legend Van der Vaart has questioned his credentials between the sticks.
WHAT VAN DER VAART SAID
Speaking on Dutch television, as per the Daily Mail, the ex-Netherlands international said: "Take a look at Raya. Is this guy even a goalkeeper?
"Kane doesn't even make a movement but Raya just falls to the ground already."
