Defending champions Bayern Munich have booked their place in the quarter-finals of the Champions League following a 1-1 draw with Arsenal in Tuesday's last 16, second-leg clash at the Allianz Arena.
The match was played against the backdrop of the court case against Bayern president Uli Hoeness, who is fighting to avoid a jail term and stands accused of having dodged 27.2 million euros in taxes by hiding his wealth in Swiss bank accounts.
