Olise scores twice as Bayern thrash Bodo/Glimt
Harry Kane opened the scoring for Bayern Munich, netting his 55th Champions League goal as the German giants launched their group‑stage campaign with a dominant 5‑0 victory over Norwegian side Bodo/Glimt. Michael Olise added a brace, contributing two of the five goals that underscored Bayern’s superiority on the night, while the rest of the tally came from other attackers as the hosts comfortably controlled the match.
The win not only marked a strong start for Bayern in Europe but also highlighted the continued potency of their attacking lineup, with Kane’s milestone goal underscoring his enduring class at the highest level. Olise’s double demonstrated the French‑born winger’s growing influence in the squad, suggesting that Bayern’s recent recruitment strategy is bearing fruit and providing depth beyond their established stars.
Bayern’s comprehensive triumph sets them up as early favorites in their group, while Bodo/Glimt return to Norway with a heavy defeat that will force them to reassess their defensive frailties against elite opposition. The result also adds to Kane’s personal Champions League legacy and gives Bayern momentum heading into the next round of fixtures, where they will look to maintain their high‑scoring form.
