Bayern Munich's Michael Olise Sees Red for 'Super Dumb' Second Yellow Card in Seconds

Bayern Munich was held to a dramatic 3-3 draw against Viking in the Champions League on Tuesday, with the Norwegian champions securing a late equalizer through Herman Haugen moments after Michael Olise was sent off. The German giants found themselves trailing 2-0 at halftime, courtesy of goals from Gianni Stensness and Peter Christiansen.

Harry Kane appeared to have orchestrated a stunning comeback, scoring twice and assisting another to give Bayern a 3-2 lead. However, the momentum shifted when Olise received a second yellow card within a minute for dissent, specifically for throwing the ball at an opponent's face. Viking capitalized on their numerical advantage, with Haugen finding the back of the net in the final minute to snatch a surprising draw against the German powerhouse.

Olise's dismissal means he will be absent for Bayern's crucial upcoming match against English champions Arsenal in Munich. Bayern coach Kompany described the red card as "super dumb," acknowledging Olise's regret and his disappointment in letting the team down.

Kane's brace marked his ninth consecutive Champions League match with a goal, equaling a club record previously held by Robert Lewandowski and bringing him two goals behind Cristiano Ronaldo's record of 11. "It was a poor first half from us. We started the second half well and fought our way back. But the red card changed everything," Kane commented. He added that Olise "will be gutted and he has to take responsibility for it. It was a mistake, and mistakes happen. He has to learn from it. It’s a shame because we have important games ahead of us."

This incident follows closely on the heels of Bayern conceding the fastest goal in Bundesliga history during their recent 2-2 draw at Augsburg. In Tuesday's match, Viking took an early lead just 72 seconds in when Stensness headed home an outswinging corner. Despite increased pressure from Bayern, they struggled to find an equalizer until a penalty was awarded after Konrad Laimer was fouled in the box shortly after halftime. Kane converted the spot-kick, reducing the deficit.

The England captain then leveled the scores in the 60th minute with a header from a Joshua Kimmich cross. Although Diaz had a goal disallowed for offside shortly after, he then scored Bayern's third goal, assisted by Kane, following a saved shot from Laimer. The match seemed to be heading towards a Bayern victory until Olise's ill-timed dismissal. The France winger initially received a yellow card for a foul before his second, more severe, offense of throwing the ball at Viking captain Zlatko Tripic's face, leaving Bayern a man down with 16 minutes remaining. Viking seized the opportunity, with Haugen's late header securing a memorable draw for the hosts.
