Kane’s brace fails to secure win as Bayern are denied by late Viking equaliser with ten men

Herman Haugen scored a 90th-minute equaliser as Viking held Bayern Munich to a dramatic 3-3 Champions League draw that will go down as one of the most famous nights in the club’s history.

Harry Kane scored twice and had a huge hand in the third goal, scored by Luis Díaz, as Bayern came from 2-0 down to lead late on. However, a needless red card for Michael Olise in the 73rd minute shifted the balance once again.

Late drama at the back post

With time ticking down, the tireless Viking captain Zlotka Tripic sent in a cross, and academy product Haugen rose at the back post. The ball went in off the defender’s shoulder, and no home fans cared about how it went in.

Viking strike early and often

Viking had taken a shock lead after only 70 seconds, when Gianni Stensness headed in from a corner. They struck again seven minutes before the break on the counter-attack, with Peter Christiansen finishing a superb move.

Bayern fight back

Kane pulled one back from the spot early in the second half. Haugen had caught Joshua Kimmich in the box, and a VAR check confirmed the decision. On the hour, Kane headed in Kimmich’s cross, making it nine straight Champions League appearances for the England captain with a goal.

Bayern moved ahead after 71 minutes. Kane swept the ball into the path of Laimer, who squared for Díaz to finish. Bayern could not hold on, however, and Haugen’s late header secured a result that Viking will remember for years.
