UEFA Champions League / Atalanta – Bayern: Michael Olise under scrutiny!

Bayern Munich’s resounding 6-1 away win over Atalanta in the first leg of the Champions League Round of 16 could have unexpected consequences for Michael Olise. The French winger has drawn the attention of UEFA after displaying suspicious behavior late in the match.

According to reports from RMC Sport, the Bayern player allegedly sought to intentionally pick up a yellow card. During a corner kick, Olise reportedly took his time to resume play despite repeated warnings from the referee.

The European governing body suspects a deliberate move to serve a potential suspension during the second leg, ensuring Olise would be available for the next round. This scenario may now prompt UEFA to launch disciplinary proceedings.
