Bayern Munich Lives Ramsey Injured

The Arsenal midfielder pulled up with a suspected hamstring injury after attempting to close down David Alaba and was replaced by Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain after 57 minutes

Aaron Ramsey has limped out of Arsenal's Champions League clash with Bayern Munich with a suspected hamstring injury.

The Welsh midfielder was replaced by Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain 10 minutes into the second half after pulling up as he attempted to close down David Alaba, with the 24-year-old immediately clutching his hamstring in clear discomfort.

Losing Ramsey for a prolonged period would come as a big blow to Arsene Wenger's side, with the Gunners facing Everton in the Premier League on the weekend before away fixtures against Sheffield Wednesday and Swansea City.

Arsenal then face Bayern Munich away from home in the Champions League before the north London derby against Tottenham in the Premier League on November 8.

Neymar + Rakitic = two goals and three points Two beautiful goals from Ivan Rakitic, and two lovely assists from Neymar, were enough to bring Barcelona a welcomed 2-0 win, and keep last year's Champions League winners in firm control of Group E. Barca had lots of the ball in the first half, but made few clear chances, and the game was still scoreless at the break.
