Though the hosts have registered more shots on target than Bayern Munich (four v three), the Bundesliga side have registered an x G rating 1. 89. Could those misses from Dayot Upamecano and Serge Gnabry come back to bite Bayern?

Mick, Gainsborough HT: Sporting 0-0 Arsenal Matt Upson Former Arsenal defender on BBC Radio 5 Live at José Alvalade Stadium It's been relatively cagey and a little bit reserved. Neither team really got the upper hand and it's fairly even at the moment. HT: Sporting 0-0 Arsenal Goalless at the break but Maxi Araujo has been a bright spark for Sporting, marauding up and down the left flank for the home side. Sporting 0-0 Arsenal The referee didn't fancy seeing much more of this as the whistle goes for half-time the moment the clock hit 45 minutes. Sporting 0-0 Arsenal Alex Howell BBC Sport Arsenal reporter at José Alvalade Stadium Mikel Arteta is trying to bring some intensity to how Arsenal defend when Sporting have the ball near their penalty area. He just ran along his technical area to encourage Ben White and Noni Madueke to press the ball. Real Madrid 0-1 Bayern Munich That's that then. A thrilling first half with chances at both ends but Bayern lead at the break. Their only complaint will perhaps be that it's not more than one goal. Real Madrid 0-1 Bayern Munich Real Madrid are appealing for a penalty but referee Michael Oliver gives it the other way. Dayot Upamecano makes the challenge on Vinicius Jr in the corner of the penalty box but the decision is handball after the Brazilian tried to take things into his own hands, (literally). Click 'Get Involved' at the top of the page Watching both games simultaneously and looks like I’m watching two different competitions. The quality of Bayern's and Madrid's attacks are leagues above Arsenal's and Sporting's. Benji, Newcastle Sporting 0-0 Arsenal Matt Upson Former Arsenal defender on BBC Radio 5 Live at José Alvalade Stadium Sporting look like they have more edge to them in open-play. Arsenal look better from set-plays but Sporting look more dangerous. It's a big effort from the Sporting team at the moment. Sporting 0-0 Arsenal Arsenal have their first shot on target with 42 minutes on the clock but it is a pretty tame effort from Martin Odegaard, straight at the goalkeeper. Sporting 0-0 Arsenal The stats initially showed Luis Suarez as being booked for dissent but that's now disappeared, leaving Hidemasa Morita as the only player booked so far in this match. Real Madrid 0-1 Bayern Munich Steve Mc Manaman Former Real Madrid winger on TNT Sports There's a huge amount of experience on the bench for Real Madrid to turn to which is why the selection tonight really surprised me. Click 'Get Involved' at the top of the page "Structure" really does seem to be Arsenals problem, it's their strength but also their weakness, they consistently struggle to break these teams down, as the structure they enforce completely strangles any creativity. They are so rigid. Mark, Stoke Real Madrid 0-1 Bayern Munich That was Serge Gnabry's fifth assist of this Champions League campaign - the most of any player. It was also Luis Diaz's fifth goal of the campaign. Real Madrid 0-1 Bayern Munich Steve Mc Manaman Former Real Madrid winger on TNT Sports A gorgeous finish. Real Madrid were cut open with ruthless efficiency from the Germans. Harry Kane to Serge Gnabry and then what a pass that was and Luis Diaz isn't missing from that. Luis Diaz (41 mins) Bayern finally take a deserved lead! It's lovely pass and move football from Bayern to carve Real Madrid open after Vinicius Jr gives the ball away cheaply. It comes from Harry Kane to Serge Gnabry then to Luis Diaz and the Colombian slots home. Sporting 0-0 Arsenal Arsenal did hit the crossbar from Noni Madueke's corner but otherwise they've had one shot on goal and none on target. They haven't been threatening enough overall. Sporting 0-0 Arsenal Matt Upson Former Arsenal defender on BBC Radio 5 Live at José Alvalade Stadium The referee has been quick to brandish the yellow card in this game. Sporting 0-0 Arsenal Luis Suárez was also shown a yellow card for dissent, presumably unhappy with the booking for Hidemasa Morita. That, I believe, means he will be suspended for the second leg.
