That was an absolute gift for Manchester City.

Scoring that would definitely have changed the complexion of this game.

Khadija Shaw and Sam Coffey make way for Mary Fowler and Laura Blindkilde-Brown.

Khadija Shaw can't take advantage of it!

She sends her effort just to the left of the middle and Ena Mahmutovic saves.

What an earth is Mahmutovic doing. Fujino was desperately trying to get on the end of it but she made her mind up for her.

All of a sudden, Bayern are on the back foot, City can make their mark on this game.

Ena Mahmutovic got that completely wrong.

She wipes out Aoba Fujino and the referee points to the spot.

Khadija Shaw steps up.

City are passing better, it certainly helps against a team like Bayern.

Right, back to Bavaria.

Aoba Fujino has looked relatively lively for Manchester City since the restart as they continue to hold more of the ball.

They've also knocked it about nicely in the middle.

There are eight changes from Arsenal from the side who drew with Manchester United.

Misa Rodriguez, Emily Fox, Ona Batlle, Georgia Stanway, Mariona Caldentey, Olivia Smith, Alessia Russo and Lisa Baum all drop to the bench.

While the second half continues here, let's get the team news for Arsenal's game at 20:00 BST.

This has, at least, been slightly better from Manchester City so far.

At least they're managing to thread the ball around and work it out of their own half. They need to do more of that to turn this around.

Bayern have done such a good job with their rotations and their positioning when they don't have the ball. It's been difficult for City to get through.

They look like a team that can go far in this competition.

Kerstin Casparij is booked for a foul on Klara Buhl.

This has started in a very similar manner to how much of the second half played out.

Bayern have been on top and are keeping the ball well in City's third.

Oooh! Nearly another for Bayern.

A clever delivery from Klara Buhl from a free kick finds Gloidis Vigosdottir, but she heads just wide.

Bayern controlled a lot of that first half, that goal was a lifeline. They couldn't get their key players into the box because of Bayern's press.

Bayern will be very gutted that they let that goal in before the half.

Time for the second half.

No changes at the break for either side.

HB Koge are a Danish club based in Koge, a port town on Denmark's east coast about 24 miles south of Copenhagen.

The club was founded in 2009 but only recently became a serious force in Danish women's football, winning four of the past six Danish top flight titles. Last season they won a league and cup double.

HB Koge are appearing in the group stage / league phase of the Women's Champions League for the second time, after making their debut in 2021-22.

That season they were eliminated in the group stage after losing all six of their games by an aggregate score of 22-2. Arsenal were responsible for eight of those goals.

HB Koge eliminated Riga FC, Hearts and PSV Eindhoven on their way to qualifying for this season's league phase.

After back-to-back draws in the Women's Super League, Arsenal manager Renee Slegers was asked how she has tried to keep up the confidence levels of her players.

"Expressing the belief in the squad, but also giving the detail of what can we build on. What are we working towards? What are the solutions? Where can we focus?" Slegers said during her pre-match media conference.

"But then also keeping things light and not overthinking things and overanalysing things. Short, sharp messages. Bring a lot of energy as a staff group, player group. I think that's really important.

"Because we're all aware that it's a long season. We're all disappointed with the four points lost. What we do know is that we are very, very close. We all believe that when it clicks, it clicks."
