The Story in 60 Seconds

Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise will miss the Champions League clash against Arsenal after being sent off during a 3-3 draw against Norwegian club Viking. The France international received two quick yellow cards after committing a tactical foul and throwing the ball directly into Viking captain Zlatko Tripic's face. Manager Vincent Kompany described the red card as "super dumb," adding that Olise apologized for letting his team down.

Bayern had recovered from a two-goal deficit to lead 3-2 courtesy of a Harry Kane brace and a Luis Diaz goal before Olise's dismissal. Viking substitute Herman Haugen then capitalized on the numerical advantage to score an equalizer. Elsewhere in the Champions League, Barcelona defeated Galatasaray 4-1 with goals from Joao Cancelo, Fermin Lopez, Anthony Gordon, and Karim Adeyemi.
