While Bayern Munich left the Viking away match with a surprise 3-3 draw in the Champions League, the most important event that marked the night was the red card received by French star Michael Olise and manager Vincent Kompany's harsh statements at the end of the match. While the German giant struggled to establish superiority against its opponent's highly resilient football throughout the match, the tension experienced in the 73rd minute turned all plans upside down. Succumbing to the high tension on the pitch, talented player Michael Olise could not control his nerves after a harsh physical struggle and directly threw the ball in his hands at opposing team player Zlatko Tripic. Following this aggressive movement, the referee of the match did not hesitate to show his second yellow card and sent the French footballer off with a red card. The biggest reaction to his player, who left his team missing on the pitch in the final stages and seriously damaged the chance of winning, came personally from his own coach. Belgian manager Vincent Kompany, who looked quite angry at the official press conference held after the match, criticized this irresponsible action of his player in a definite language, emphasizing that there is no side to be defended in any way. The young coach, regarding the red card incident, used the expressions, "Michael is a player who will always be provoked by opponents, but that's not an excuse. It's 100% his fault. He knows it as well. You can't say you deserve to win the game when you make individual decisions like that. We didn't deserve to win because we made mistakes that cannot happen." The fact that the experienced coach criticized his star footballer with such clear words in front of the public aroused a wide repercussion in the German sports media, giving signals of how strictly the discipline rules within the team will be applied. Fans also gave great support to their coach's justified rebellion via social media platforms.
