Breakfast FC Kane condemns Olise’s red card as Barça loom
Harry Kane did not mince words after Michael Olise was sent off for throwing the ball at an opponent’s head in front of the referee, an incident that cost Bayern two points and will see the Frenchman miss the upcoming Champions League showdown with Arsenal. The striker’s rebuke came in the post‑match interview, where he said Olise would be devastated and must take responsibility for the mistake.
Kane’s criticism and wider fallout
“Olise will be devastated and he’ll have to take responsibility for it. Obviously, lessons need to be learned. It’s a shame because we’ve got a big Champions League game coming up, and he’ll be gutted to miss these matches. But that’s football. Sometimes mistakes happen. That’s life. It would have been nice if we could have held on,” Kane explained.
Vincent Kompany also joined the criticism, calling out Olise for the reckless act. Bayern and Michael Olise now face a period of reflection, with the French midfielder sidelined for the crucial Arsenal fixture.
Barça’s attacking onslaught continues
Meanwhile, Barça delivered another attacking masterclass on Tuesday night, beating Galatasaray 4‑1. The Catalan side have scored no fewer than 43 goals in 10 matches this season, a rate that has left Real Madrid and Paris Saint‑Germain warned ahead of their upcoming clashes.
