Olise's reckless slip puts Bayern on alert in Stavanger
In the cold light of the Norwegian artificial turf of Viking Stavanger, the Munichers saw a 3-3 that Michael Olise “bastard” Zlatko Tripic threw in his face and sent him off the pitch. The incident made coach Vincent Kompany and sporting director Max Eberl furious, while Harry Kane urged calm.
Match Progress and Dismissal
Bayern were already down 0-2 at halftime before they scored three goals in the second half to reach a final score of 3-3. The decisive moment was Olise’s yellow‑red, after he threw the ball at Tripic following an unsporting act. The Frenchman left the field, which Kompany described as “utterly stupid.”
Reactions from Club and Opponent
Vincent Kompany criticised his team’s performance as a “total concentration error” and called the style of play “simply not clever.” Max Eberl focused on the defence and demanded more attention to avoid counter‑attacks. At the same time he praised Viking captain Tripic, who provoked Olise for so long until he received the red card: “He played like a bastard,” Eberl said, adding that Tripic had achieved his goal of getting a player sent off.
Tripic himself was pleased and joked on the Norwegian channel TV2 about the incident: “It’s great that a player like this – who will most likely win the Ballon d’Or someday – gets a little upset about a boy from Oftebro and Lyngdal.”

Harry Kane, double‑goal scorer and Player of the Match, expressed displeasure about the dismissal: “You have to be smart in these moments, control the emotions.” At the same time he called for calm: “It’s not the end of the world. There’s no reason to panic.”
Joshua Kimmich, the vice‑captain, added: “I already said relatively early in the season that I feel we are not yet at our top level. And I still feel that at the moment. Internally I am on alert.”
For Konrad Laimer and the rest of the squad, the 3-3 in Stavanger means one point and another setback, while the debate about concentration and defence continues.
