Bayern’s Michael Olise sent off for ‘super dumb’ yellows within seconds

What the report says

Bayern Munich were held to a 3-3 draw by Viking in a UEFA Champions League match on Tuesday in Norway, in a game shaped by an early deficit, a Bayern comeback and a late equaliser. Viking led 2-0 at halftime after goals from Gianni Stensness and Peter Christiansen, before Bayern responded through Harry Kane, who scored twice and also set up another goal as the German side moved ahead 3-2.

The decisive turning point came when Michael Olise was sent off after receiving two yellow cards in quick succession. According to Al Jazeera’s report, the first booking was for a foul, and the second followed when he threw the ball at Viking captain Zlatko Tripic’s face in front of the referee. Bayern coach Vincent Kompany described the dismissal as a costly mistake, and Kane said the red card changed the match.

Viking took advantage of the numerical edge and equalised in the 90th minute through Herman Haugen, securing a notable result against the Bundesliga club. The draw leaves Bayern with work to do in the group stage, while Olise will miss the upcoming match against Arsenal in Munich. Kane’s goal also extended his Champions League scoring streak, matching a Bayern club record held by Robert Lewandowski.
