Arsenal were really troubled by Bayern Munich’s rapid counter-attacks in the first half of the Champions League tie.
The Bavarians scored their equalizer after a fast break before Leroy Sane won the penalty with a blistering run into the box.
Sane almost scored again towards the 35th-minute mark after being played all through to the Gunners’ box. Ben White, however, had other things on his mind.
The Englishman made an incredible sprint to go from outside Bayern’s box to reach his own penalty area in a short span before stopping Sane from scoring.
White showcased impressive determination and speed to catch up with the speedy winger and stop him from making it 3-1.
A lot of Arsenal fans have hailed White’s efforts in that moment and his overall performance, as they reacted on Reddit.
Patrick_Hattrick: “White was one of our best players tonight. I love him.”
Djidjo88: “I don't care what anybody says. Benny Blanco is the best RB in the league this year(2024) maybe even for the season.”
Kish-Kish: “Absolutely insane, especially considering he’s playing through an injury. He did have a couple of brain fart moments today, then again, everyone pretty much did too.”
Notapaperhandape: “What a run. I love this arsenal. Never give up. Always show up. Basically could apply this to my life.”
