Viking hold Bayern Munich 3-3 with Haugen's 90th-minute leveller after Michael Olise is sent off

Herman Haugen's late goal earned Norwegian champions Viking a 3-3 draw with Bayern Munich after Harry Kane's double and Michael Olise's red card.

Norwegian champions Viking held Bayern Munich to a 3-3 draw in the Champions League on Tuesday, 13 October, after Herman Haugen scored a 90th-minute equaliser in Stavanger. Bayern had recovered from 2-0 down to lead through two Harry Kane goals and a Luis Diaz strike, but Michael Olise's red card for two yellow cards in quick succession left them with ten men and opened the door for a late twist.

Viking's flying start

The hosts scored with their first real attack. Gianni Stensness headed in an outswinging corner after just 72 seconds, and Bayern struggled to impose themselves on the first half.

In the 38th minute Peter Christiansen finished off a rapid counter-attack to double Viking's lead, and the Norwegian side went in at half-time 2-0 up against the six-time European champions. Bayern were without Manuel Neuer, with Jonas Urbig in goal.

Kane leads the fightback

Vincent Kompany's side responded quickly after the break. Konrad Laimer was fouled in the box and Kane converted the penalty in the 54th minute. On the hour, Kane headed in a Joshua Kimmich cross to make it 2-2.

Diaz had a goal ruled out for offside shortly afterwards, but he put Bayern ahead in the 71st minute, scoring from a rebound after Laimer's shot was saved. Kane's goals mean he has scored in nine consecutive Champions League matches, equalling Robert Lewandowski's club record and moving to within two of Cristiano Ronaldo's record run of 11.

Olise's costly moment

With Bayern in front, the game swung again. Olise was booked for a foul and then, within about a minute, shown a second yellow card for dissent after throwing the ball at Viking captain Zlatko Tripic. That left Bayern to see out roughly the final 16 minutes with ten men.

Viking kept pushing, and Haugen found the equaliser in the 90th minute. Kompany was blunt afterwards, calling the dismissal "super dumb" and saying the result was Bayern's own fault, according to Al Jazeera.

Consequences for Bayern

The draw follows a 2-2 Bundesliga draw at Augsburg on the previous Saturday, so Bayern have dropped points in back-to-back matches. Olise is suspended for next week's home Champions League game against English champions Arsenal in Munich, a significant absence for one of the league phase's biggest fixtures.

For Viking, the point is a landmark result in their league-phase campaign and a rare positive in a European record that has featured far more defeats than wins in the competition.

For Malaysian viewers, the match kicked off at 3am on Wednesday, 14 October, Malaysia time.
