Jamal Musiala Scores Early as Bayern Demolishes Bodø/Glimt

Berlin – In a striking Champions League opener, Bayern Munich overwhelmed Bodø/Glimt with a 5-0 win, highlighted by an early goal from midfielder Jamal Musiala. The German side maintained possession from the kick‑off but initially found it hard to breach the Norwegian side’s five‑player defensive block.

Luis Diaz earned a header chance after Joshua Kimmich’s cross, but goalkeeper Nikita Haikin kept the ball out. Kimmich later struck a long-range effort that clipped the post.

Haikin’s back injury forced a substitution at the break, bringing Julian Felix onto the field. Two minutes after the restart, Bayern extended their lead when Musiala seized a loose ball and curled it into the left corner.

Harry Kane’s attempts were neutralised, yet Michael Olis’s free‑kick found Felix for a second header, further widening the gap. Alfonso Davis added a 17‑meter goal in the 77th minute, and shortly after Olis supplied the fourth strike to Carl Lenart.

The match turned decisive when Odin Byortuft received a red card for a foul on Olis in the 87th minute. Olis capped his performance with a second goal during added time, completing Bayern’s five‑goal haul.

Kane reflected on the half‑time advantage, noting the team’s patience and the impact of the early goals in shaping a confident second half.
