Arsenal handed huge boost for Bayern Munich showdown after ‘super dumb’ red card

Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise will be suspended for next week's Champions League match against Arsenal following a red card against Viking. Olise received two quick yellow cards, first for a shirt pull and then for throwing the ball at an opponent. Bayern manager Vincent Kompany described the dismissal as "super dumb," confirming the key forward will miss the showdown with Mikel Arteta's side.

The suspension presents a blow to Bayern, as Olise had registered nine goals and four assists in his previous eight appearances. Bayern overcame a 2-0 deficit to win their fixture behind two goals from Harry Kane and one from Luis Diaz. Asked about the suspension following Arsenal's win over Lille, Arteta sidestepped the topic to focus on their upcoming Premier League match.
