Summary

Harry Kane scored twice as Bayern Munich were held to a dramatic 3-3 draw away at Viking in the Champions League on October 3, 2023. The Norwegian side shocked the Bundesliga giants by taking a two-goal lead at halftime, with Gianni Stensness heading in just 71 seconds into the match, followed by Peter Christiansen extending the lead to 2-0.

However, Bayern responded after the break when Kane converted a penalty in the 54th minute, reducing the deficit to 2-1. He then leveled the score with a powerful header on the hour mark.

As the match appeared to swing in Bayern’s favor, Luis Diaz scored to seemingly secure a 3-2 lead. Yet, the situation turned when Michael Olise received a second yellow card, leaving Bayern with ten men. Shortly after, substitute Herman Haugen scored a stunning equalizer at the far post, sealing the draw for Viking.

Olise’s red card means he will miss Bayern’s next Champions League fixture against Arsenal at home on October 11, 2023.
