Bayern Munich Surrenders Late Draw After Viking Comeback
Bayern Munich surrendered a late equalizer after recovering from a two-goal deficit to draw 3-3 with Viking in a European match in Norway. Harry Kane scored twice and Luis Diaz added another goal to put the German side ahead, but Haugen struck in the 90th minute after Michael Olise was sent off, according to Marca's match report published October 13, 2026. Viking took an early lead through Stensness in the second minute, capitalizing on a cross from captain Tripic.
Christiansen doubled the hosts' advantage in the 38th minute, finishing a counterattack after Bayern committed players forward. Bayern dominated possession and created several chances during the opening stages, with Laimer, Karl, Olise and Diaz all testing the Norwegian defense. Goalkeeper Ostbo helped Viking withstand the pressure before the hosts extended their lead.
Bayern goalkeeper Urbig started ahead of Neuer following the latter's mistake against Mainz, according to Marca. The match also marked an unusual playing surface for the German club, which had not played on artificial turf since 2006.
Bayern coach Kompany responded to the two-goal deficit with three substitutions, bringing on Upamecano, Davies and Saibari for Tah, Brown and Karl. The changes helped revive the visitors' attack after halftime. Kane converted a penalty in the 54th minute to reduce the deficit. Six minutes later, the England striker completed his brace by heading home a cross from Kimmich, bringing Bayern level at 2-2.
Diaz then completed Bayern's turnaround in the 71st minute. After a coordinated attacking move, Laimer supplied the ball for the Colombian winger to put the visitors ahead 3-2. The lead lasted only 19 minutes before Viking rescued a point. Olise received a second yellow card three minutes after Diaz's goal for kicking the ball into an opponent's face, leaving Bayern with 10 players and giving the Norwegian side an opportunity to increase its pressure.
Viking pushed forward during the closing stages, forcing Bayern to defend deep. Tripic again provided the decisive delivery, setting up Haugen for the 90th-minute equalizer that denied the visitors victory.
