Deficient in numbers, German giants Bayern Munich fell into the draw trap against their hosts, Norwegian side Viking, in a 3-3 draw in the second round of the unified group stage of the UEFA Champions League. Meanwhile, Inter Milan suffered a defeat, while Spanish clubs Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, along with English side Arsenal, secured victories.
The Bavarian giants appeared to be on track for a stunning comeback after falling behind to goals from Australian striker Jamie Stenness (2nd minute) and Peter Christiansen (38th minute), but they showed their teeth in the second half. The German champions came back with a hat-trick from English striker Harry Kane (54th minute, penalty; 60th minute) and Colombian forward Luis Diaz (71st minute), before their efforts were undone by French midfielder Michael Olise, who was sent off in the 73rd minute.
The home side exploited their numerical advantage and equalized with a late goal from substitute Herman Haugen (90th minute). Viking moved up to four points, while Bayern remained on one point.
At the San Siro, after losing their opening match 2-1 to Real Madrid in Spain, Inter Milan suffered a shocking 4-3 defeat to Belgian visitors Club Brugge, orchestrated by German-Italian fan-favorite Nicolò Tresoldi, who scored a hat-trick. Brugge’s goals came from Tresoldi (30th minute, penalty; 63rd; 74th) and Romeo Vermant (87th). Inter’s goals were scored by Lautaro Martinez (44th and 81st) and Jean-Yves Mboulla (90+3rd).
Barcelona thrashed their Turkish hosts Galatasaray 4-1 in Istanbul. Atletico Madrid added to Manchester United’s woes with a 2-0 victory. Atletico’s goals were scored by Pablo Barrios just 47 seconds into the match and Edemola Lukman (79th minute). The match also saw Manchester United defender Lenny Yoro sent off in the 74th minute.
