Herman Haugen scored a 90th-minute equalizer as Viking held Bayern Munich to a dramatic 3-3 draw in the Champions League, a result that will go down as one of the most famous nights in the club’s history.
Harry Kane scored twice and played a major role in the third goal, scored by Luis Díaz, as Bayern came from 2-0 down to lead late in the match. A needless red card for Michael Olise in the 73rd minute then shifted the balance once again.
With time running out, the tireless Viking captain Zlotka Tripic sent in a cross. Viking academy product Haugen rose at the back post, and the ball went in off the defender’s shoulder. The home fans did not care how it went in.
Viking takes control early
Viking took a shock lead after only 70 seconds, when Gianni Stensness headed in from a corner. Seven minutes before the break, the hosts struck on the counter-attack, with Peter Christiansen finishing a superb move to make it 2-0.
Bayern fight back
Kane pulled one back from the penalty 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 to level the match at 2-2. The England captain also made it nine straight Champions League appearances 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 equalizer rescued a point for Viking.
