Bayern Munich Crush Bodo Glimt With Five Goals

Bayern Munich made an emphatic start to their 2026/27 UEFA Champions League campaign with a 5–0 victory over Bodø/Glimt, producing a devastating second-half display after the opening 45 minutes had remained goalless. Bodø/Glimt managed to frustrate Bayern during the first half, but the balance of the match changed completely after the interval. Bayern increased the tempo, found more space in attacking areas and quickly began converting their pressure into goals. Jamal Musiala, Harry Kane, Alphonso Davies and Michael Olise all found the net as Bayern scored five times in the second half. Olise completed the scoring as the German champions turned what had been a competitive contest into one of the most one-sided results of Champions League Matchday 1. The victory also extended Bayern’s excellent record against Norwegian opposition. Before the match, they were unbeaten in eight European fixtures against Norwegian clubs, and the 5–0 result ensured that run continued in emphatic fashion. Bayern’s league-phase schedule becomes significantly tougher from here, with upcoming matches against Arsenal, Atlético Madrid, Manchester United and Real Betis among their remaining fixtures. Starting with three points and a strong goal difference therefore represents an ideal foundation for the campaign. For Bayern, it was a near-perfect European opening: five goals, a clean sheet and a convincing reminder of their Champions League pedigree.
