In a UEFA Champions League match at the Lyse Arena in Norway, Viking FK and Bayern Munich played to a 3-3 draw. Viking FK established an early 2-0 lead through Gianni Stensness and Peter Christiansen. Bayern Munich staged a second-half comeback with two goals from Harry Kane—one via a penalty and one via a header—and one from Luis Díaz to take a 3-2 lead.

The match turned in the 74th minute when Bayern Munich’s Michael Olise was sent off after receiving a second yellow card for throwing the ball at Viking captain Zlatko Tripic. Viking FK utilized the man advantage to secure an equalizer via Herman Haugen in the 90th minute. Observers noted the match was played on artificial turf, a condition Bayern Munich is rarely accustomed to in the Champions League.

Following the match, Bayern Munich officials expressed frustration regarding the incident. Manager Vincent Kompany described the dismissal as ‘incredibly stupid’ and suggested Olise fell into a trap set by Tripic, whom he characterized as a skilled provocateur. Sporting director Max Eberl criticized Tripic’s conduct, calling him a ‘scoundrel’ or saying he played ‘like a jerk.’ While Harry Kane described Tripic as a ‘clever player’ typical of professional football, other observers were critical. Bodø/Glimt goalkeeper Nikita Haikin described the perceived cynicism as ‘unacceptable,’ while Viking manager Bjarte Lunde Aarsheim defended the approach as a necessary ‘winning mentality’ for high-level competition.
